I found it seriously lacking in both this and E&P, Fangirl was the only one where I could the emotions really develop.<br />Hope you enjoy this Celine (:Jazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02234168594031112363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-739878661565443064.post-3495843098888883092014-07-29T21:35:05.426+10:002014-07-29T21:35:05.426+10:00Obviously I'm no expert on marriage lol but I ...Obviously I'm no expert on marriage lol but I imagine this is what happens in the real world and I liked how she takes such a realistic approach but adds the magical touch :DJazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02234168594031112363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-739878661565443064.post-64175440465359191902014-07-29T21:34:19.278+10:002014-07-29T21:34:19.278+10:00I still need to read Attachments, I wonder if that...I still need to read Attachments, I wonder if that'll be better for me.

(I haven't read Fangirl yet, but will remedy that soon.) I get what you mean with "I didn’t see the emotional component behind how and why Georgie and Neal got together to begin with." I had that problem with E&P too. Like, they were starting to get friends (imo) and just hang out a bit but I didn't feel like they were really ready to get together because there wasn't really a reason for it yet. Still, I can imagine that Landline might be very relatable for people who have been married for a while. While that obviously doesn't apply to me, I'm still very curious about this :)<br /><br />Great review, Jaz <33Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00430821457141309710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-739878661565443064.post-88950918388046458702014-07-20T19:15:29.860+10:002014-07-20T19:15:29.860+10:00Excellent review Jaz, I cannot wait to read this b...Excellent review Jaz, I cannot wait to read this book because I just LOVED Attachments (I haven't read E&P yet, but have read and adored Fangirl). I like how this is an adult book that addresses things like marriage, which you don't really get much of in YA you know?

That being said, I still liked Landline. It was a pretty interesting take on marriage, and what happens when trouble brews in it, so I liked that aspect a whole lot.Alexa S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13185723439360170259noreply@blogger.com
