Its been a while where I find a book that makes me laugh out loud, feel butterflies and makes me want to tear up but somehow Mr. Wrong Number did that for me. The writing honestly had so much voice from the main characters. Oliva was full of life and spunk. She was sarcastic, clumsy and such a lovable character. I could feel her energy radiating off the pages and it made me want to keep reading.
When it comes to relationships, I die for playful banter and thrive for that in my own relationships so I loved reading a book where that comes into play. Oliva and Collin's enemies to lovers troupe was fun to read mostly because of their comebacks to each other. I love reading about two people that can tell each other to sod off then slowly start realizing that they are falling for each other. There was a good amount of the miscommunication troupe and it did get a bit annoying by the end but they figured it out.
Overall, this was a very cute and playful read. I read it in one sitting and I recommend it to anyone looking for a book that will make you laugh, wrinkle your nose and make your stomach flip a few times. Thank you to NetGalley for giving me an advance readers copy for my honest review.
Adjusted my rating after reading the sequel. I liked the sequel (“The Love Wager”) slightly more but it felt like reading the exact same characters in slightly different circumstances - even though they're supposed to be completely different people. If it weren't for having read “Better Than The Movies” (which I loved), I'd think the author was a one trick pony. The main characters in both books have exactly the same dynamics and personality, so it all just fell a bit flat on me. It wasn't bad but I think my expectations were quite high. Still there were enjoyable bits here and there.
Olivia lies alot... not really something id look for in a partner. I didn't like her at all. And her views on hooter is a bit extreme.
No me gusto para nada, no era mi estilo, pensé que me iba a gustar por que ya había leído otros trabajos de la autora pero nada que ver.
Siento que al principio estuvo bien, me gusto como iba la trama y me empezaba a gustar el personaje de Olivia, pero después ya no jaja, no me gusto que asumió que el Colin fue el que dijo cuando nada que ver, ni tenía sentido que el hubiera dicho aparte que siempre hablaba mal de él cuando no le hizo nada fue como de ?????? También el Colin no me gusto que jugara con la Olivia por que el sabía con quien se estaba escribiendo, tmb se resolvió el conflicto muy rápido , SE ME OLVIDO COMENTAR, cuando la Olivia tomó el alcohol de Colin o no se que era, que era para el futuro, QUEDEEE, siento que si se paso, como andas tomando cosas que no son tuyas
Is this... pride and prejudice au fanfiction? And she's called Livvie instead of Lizzie and he is Colin after Colin Firth?! grim. 2.5 stars
