CALLER

Holt & Company

eBook

With the
warmth, wit, intimate friendships, and heart-melting romance she brings to all
her books, Emma Mills crafts a story about believing in yourself, owning your
mistakes, and trusting in human connection in Lucky Caller.
When Nina decides to take a radio broadcasting class her senior year, she expects it to be a walk in the park. Instead, it’s a complete disaster.
The members of Nina’s haphazardly formed radio team have approximately nothing in common. And to maximize the awkwardness her group includes Jamie, a childhood friend she’d hoped to basically avoid for the rest of her life.
The show is a mess, internet rumors threaten to bring the wrath of two fandoms down on their heads, and to top it all off Nina’s family is on the brink of some major upheaval.
Everything feels like it’s spiraling out of control―but maybe control is overrated?

PRAISE
FOR LUCKY CALLER
A
well-crafted, bittersweet comedy of errors filled with realistically flawed
characters and taut, witty dialogue. – Publishers Weekly Starred Review
Review
Lucky Caller is a fun look inside a school radio program. Having worked radio myself, I could relate to the problems and learning curve the students go through, as well as the triumphs and successes. I was disappointed in character Joydeep and his language. He was a bit much for me.
The family dynamics were wonderful, to see a kind step-father-to-be and healthy, loyal ties. Overall, Lucky Caller caught and held my interest. I loved Jaime. He is thoughful and selfless. The only distraction was some of the content.
