I've Got Your Number - Sophie Kinsella - 2012 *****


I love Sophie Kinsella. She's such an easy, relatable author and I was enthralled by this novel.
Poppy loses her engagement ring soon before she is due to marry her partner Magnus. Her phone is then stolen and by chance she finds a replacement in a bin. The trouble is, this phone is still very much in use and Poppy finds out that it belongs to a businessman named Sam's ex PA. She doesn't see why she should give it up, besides, she needs a phone in case anyone tracks down her ring, and Sam desperately needs the phone back to access his emails and contacts. The only thing they can do is meet and try to come to some sort of arrangement. (I don't know why this initially reminded me so much of 'Pillow Talk' with Doris Day, but it did.)
As you can imagine, all sorts of things happen, but the ending was (of course) exactly what I wanted.
