I've Got Your Number: A Novel by Sophie Kinsella


I've Got Your Number is a cute, fun read. The story is predictable and the main characters are likeable, enough.

This book isn't as well written or exciting as her previous books but it is entertaining enough. There are footnotes and if you aren't a fan of them, skip this book. I personally enjoyed them and think they added to the book but others might find it tiresome.

Poppy loses her engagement ring and along the way stumbles into someone life, while discovering things about herself. If you liked Becky from, Kinsella's shopaholic series you will love the main character, Poppy. They are similar and quirky.


Grade: B-


Overview [B&N]
I’ve lost it. :( The only thing in the world I wasn’t supposed to lose. My engagement ring. It’s been in Magnus’s family for three generations. And now the very same day his parents are coming, I’ve lost it. The very same day! Do not hyperventilate, Poppy. Stay positive :) !!

Poppy Wyatt has never felt luckier. She is about to marry her ideal man, Magnus Tavish, but in one afternoon her “happily ever after” begins to fall apart. Not only has she lost her engagement ring in a hotel fire drill but in the panic that follows, her phone is stolen. As she paces shakily around the lobby, she spots an abandoned phone in a trash can. Finders keepers! Now she can leave a number for the hotel to contact her when they find her ring. Perfect!

Well, perfect except that the phone’s owner, businessman Sam Roxton, doesn’t agree. He wants his phone back and doesn’t appreciate Poppy reading his messages and wading into his personal life.
