Book Review: Confessions of a Call Center Gal by Lisa Lim

Summary: Maddy Lee just finished college, but in this diminishing economy, finding a job is a hopeless task. When she visits her best friend in Pocatello, Idaho, they both find jobs at the Lightning Speed call center. So Maddy moves in with her friend and enters the crazy world of rude customers, strange yet endearing coworkers, and drama with her hot, belgian friend/coworker. Confessions of a Call Center Gal embarks on a drama filled and addicting journey of the life in a call center. 


Review: Wow. I loved every single freaking thing about this book! I could relate to Maddy like she was an older me, someone who loves Zac Efron (because trust me, I LOVE Zac Efron) and a night in watching reality tv. And Bridget Jones being one of my favorite movies, I fell in love with Maddy's Bridget-esque personality, never being able to get things to go exactly her way. There were parts where I would find myself laughing out loud and other times cheering Maddy on in her trials as a call center gal. This book is full of hilarious moments in the everyday life at a call center. The workers at the call center are all crazy and lovable in their own way, from a hunky Belgian to a Vietnamese gay best friend. What I also loved was how nothing ended up happening perfectly. Maddy goes through trials and things take time to happen, just like real life. I just wanted to keep on reading every second so that I could figure out who would call in next to Maddy. I got this book for review from the author as an ebook, but after reading it I know I'm going to buy the hard copy so I can escape into Maddy's hilariously sweet world whenever I want to. Confessions of a Call Center Gal is the perfect chit-lit to curl up in bed with. Check out my interview with Lisa Lim and my giveaway of 3 ebooks of Confessions of a Call Center Gal right here!

  2. This novel looks super cute! As my summer job I work at a box office call center right now for a theater so I could probably relate to a lot of the stuff in this book as well! Definitely going to see if my library has a copy! Nice review:)
