I just finished Landline, and as soon as I finished, I rushed to post about it.
Rainbow Rowell is just AH-MA-ZING. She's one of my favourite authors and her work is simply captivating. She makes her characters' feelings so real and she managed to make me feel what they're feeling. I'm reading Eleanor & Park next. I can tell it's going to be a while before I get bored of it.
Anyways, here's Landline for you.
Georgie McCool knows her marriage is in trouble. That it's been in trouble for a long time. She still loves her husband, Neal, and Neal still loves her, deeply - but that almost seems besides the point now.
Maybe that was always besides the point.
Two days before they're supposed to visit Neal's family in Omaha for Christmas, Georgie tells Neal that she can't go. She's a TV writer, and something's come up on her show ; she has to stay in Los Angeles. She knows that Neal will be upset with her - Neal is always a little upset with Georgie - but she doesn't expect him to pack up the kids and go without her.
When her husband and the kids leave for the airport, Georgie wonders if she's finally done it. If she's ruined everything.
That night, Georgie discovers a way to communicate with Neal in the past. It's not time travel, not exactly, but she feels like she's been given an opportuniyy to fix her marriage before it starts...
Is that what she's supposed to do?
Or would Georgie and Neal be better off if their marriage never happened?
Alright, so that was the blurb.
Love and marriage isn't always what we expect it to be. It's not always a happily-ever-after, but there are good times too.
But sometimes we have to make the right choices. Which one is it for Georgie? Should her marriage never have happened?
Read and find out! I absolutely recommend this book!
