Call from an Angel

Call from an Angel by Guillaume Musso.

The author himself is currently very popular in France and everywhere else. This was the first book of this author I read.

The book tells the story of Madlen and Jonathan, who unexpectedly encountered at the airport, mistakenly exchanging their cell phones. When they understand this, it’s too late – one in San Francisco and the other in Paris. Of course, they start to delve in each other’s phone, finding secrets that no one wanted to reveal to anyone.

At least for me, the book was a lot predictable, so it’s kind of boring. I liked that each chapter of the book begins with a quote or excerpt from some famous person. 

I would call the book a romantic detective. I probably expected a little more from the praised writer’s work. Will I read the second part of this story? Not for now.
