Gimme a Call

by Sarah Mlynowski

"See, I was at the mall and I dropped my phone into the fountain. And I had been thinking about all the things I would tell myself if I could call myself when I was fourteen. And now I'm talking to you."
"What," I say slowly, "are you talking about?" I would hang up, should hang up, but she sounds so familiar.
"Don't you see?" she says, bursting with excitement. "I'm pretty sure I'm you. In the future."

Devi is a mess. Her boyfriend just dumped her, and the only college that accepted her is known to everyone as 'Stupid State'. But suddenly, she can talk to herself three-and-a-half years earlier - which means she can totally change her future for the better! Either that, or create hilarious and disastrous consequences...

This was a fun and cute audiobook to listen to while I was at work, but the Senior Devi annoyed me, to the point where I pretty much loved to hate her. I definitely enjoyed Freshman Devi a lot more and felt sorry for her. There were also moments in the story that were very predictable, but I got out of the audiobook what I wanted, an easy way to make work a little more bearable.
