London Calling — 1 year ago
This book was an absolute joy to read. I think this book ranks as one of the best Sisterchick books ever (tying with Down Under). The main reason is because going to England has always been one of my dream getaways. And I will finally get to live it out when I go on my honeymoon next year! So this book gave me lots of ideas of what to do when I go. Going to a high class tea time is a must. And I would love to visit Oxford and pretend I was a student there. Seeing the crown jewels and watching Big Ben will be high priorities on my list. I could understand Liz’s frustration with wanting to go to the city immediately instead of hanging out in the countryside. While I did enjoy reading about their adventures with the twins, I wanted them to experience the big city. I could totally relate with Liz about seeing British literature come to life first hand. I mean almost all the great classics are from British writers. I can’t wait to experience Jane Austen’s world, pretend I’m riding the train to Hogwarts or walking around London waiting for Aslan to whisk me away to Narnia. I can’t believe that Kellie didn’t know who any of the characters were. Oh I feel sorry for people who don’t like to read lol. The friendship between the two women is great and it’s wonderful to see how their relationship grows. Everyone needs a sisterchick in their life!
This book has made me so excited for my upcoming trip that I am dying to go now (forget a huge wedding, let’s plan the honeymoon! j/k!!). This book is a great armchair traveler. Once you’ve finished reading you’ll be craving fish and chips with a spot of tea and and will start speaking with a fake British accent. This is one of my favorite fiction series ever and I can’t wait to see where we get to travel next. VERY HIGHLY recommended.
