The blurb:
Can Daisy Hobson log off for love...?
Could you survive a digital detox? This hilarious new romantic comedy from
the author of The Bucket List to Mend a Broken Heart is
perfect for fans of Lucy Diamond and Sophie Kinsella.
Daisy Hobson lives her whole life online. A
marketing manager by day, she tweets her friends, instagrams every meal and
arranges (frankly, appalling) dates on Tinder. But when her social media
obsession causes her to make a catastrophic mistake at work, Daisy finds her
life going into free-fall . . .
Her sister Rosie thinks she has the answer to
all of Daisy's problems - a digital detox in a remote cottage in Cumbria, that
she just happens to need help doing up. Soon, too, Daisy finds herself with two
welcome distractions: sexy French exchange-help Alexis, and Jack, the brusque
and rugged man-next-door, who keeps accidentally rescuing her.
But can Daisy, a London girl, ever really settle
into life in a tiny, isolated village? And, more importantly, can she survive
without her phone?
My Opinion:
*Book
provided by the publisher in exchange for an honest review*
Anna Bell has a new book out?! Well, then give it to
me immediately. I love her writing style and was really excited to start
reading this one. The title is perfect for it and the story really makes you
think.
We get to follow Daisy Hobson, who is on her phone constantly,
whether it’s tweeting her friends, uploading a pic on Instagram or looking for
dates on Tinder. She is a marketing manager and really obsessed with social
media. It’s not surprising that she gets confused and mixes her accounts and
people up. So a big mistake happens and everything goes downhill from there.
Her sister Rosie thinks she needs a serious detox and Daisy finds herself in a
remote cottage in Cumbria. Can she survive without her phone?!
Luckily, there are two very nice distractions: French
exchange help Alexis and Jack, the man next door.
All the characters added something special to the
story and I think they were all very well lined out. The storyline had a great
flow and it always seemed very authentic. I sometimes wanted to shake Daisy and
make her act differently though.
This book is full of LOL moments and I also really liked
the sitting. Anna Bell puts a lot of detail in her writing and makes it really
gripping. Her style is modern, fresh, charming, warm and very exciting. It’s a
wonderful romantic comedy, full of unique moments and scenes.
