I haven't read a book from Rowell in many years and I picked up Landline on a whim. While I had only read her YA books before, I did enjoy reading this adult novel. Georgie, the protagonist, was whiny but, I think that was intentional. We, the readers, are not supposed to like her so we can later root for her eventual character development. The magic phone was a neat touch and was ultimately the deciding factor in my four-star rating (it was a toss-up between three and four stars).
