I really liked this book a lot. It was really funny with a great voice and a nice quirky plot. The main character is an American/Brit who normally lives in England, but is visiting her grandmother in the US, so it’s a nice combo of American and British humour. I particularly like the layout for how it’s told, but it’s easier if you see it than if I explain it. The only problem I had with it was twice the character made phone calls to England, and being that I live on the west coast, and she was visiting California, and I make calls to England, I feel like someone should’ve checked the time difference in the editing process. It’s eight hours most of the year, and definitely during the time the book was set, but she called her friends as they were “going out with their parents” and yet, it was late afternoon in California. That makes it roughly 10pm-12am in Oxford. Things like this drive me crazy. But that’s just me…Pick up the book, read it, laugh out loud, look for more of this author’s work, and don’t let my little idiosyncrasies drive you crazy too!
