Annie Higgins has given up on love: she’s too busy trying to get her tiny business off the ground. Infuriated by the advertising agency across the hall making fun of her job, Annie accepts their crazy challenge – to make a random stranger Instagram-famous in just thirty days.
And even when they choose Dr Samuel Page PhD, historian and hater of social media, as her target, Annie’s determined to win the bet – whether Sam likes it or not.
But getting to know Sam means getting to know more about herself. And before the thirty days are out, Annie has to make a decision about what’s really important…
My Review:
Hand’s up I am a massive fan of Lindsey Kelk! I was so eager to get my hands on her latest book ‘One in a Million’, even better I got to purchase it on the paperback publication day and meet her in person courtesy of Waterstones along with Giovanna Fletcher and Paige Toon! (Yay!) It was a fun evening of book chat and Lindsey as always is so nice to meet… Even when I was a stuttering wally..! Doh!
This book has everything you need, bundles of humour, likeable characters, romance, friendship and a cat called Wellington.
We meet Annie who works all hours running her own agency involving social media. Being a big fan of social media this story was already a firm fav… Like Annie my phone is the first and last thing I check of a day, never going too long without checking my phone, a constant scroller on social media and never letting my battery fall to below 50%.
After the guys at the advertising agency across the hall (Martin and Charlie) make fun of Annie’s business they decide to set her a challenge to make a stranger instafamous. Challenge accepted! Annie needs the instagram account to reach 20k followers within a month, but when faced with her chosen target Dr Samuel (NOT Sam) Page, historian, badly dressed and an all time hater of all social media this challenge may be harder than she first thought.
Unfriendly and slightly haughty (my new fav word by the way) Samuel is the complete opposite to Annie, hater of all social media, badly dressed and recently dumped by his girlfriend Elaine he doesn’t jump at the chance to become an Instagram influencer. After Annie’s words of persuasion and promises of getting his girlfriend back by enrolling him into boyfriend bootcamp, Samuel agrees to help Annie win the bet.
With help from her friends and work colleagues, Annie sets to work on her mission to get Elaine back for Samuel while creating his instagram profile. Restyling Samuel, changing his bad boyfriend habits, posting history facts and booking him into dance classes… Annie is well on her way to winning, or is she?
Of course there are some bumps along the way, it wouldn’t be a Kelk story if it was all smooth sailing!
The book is a great read (I didn’t expect anything less) with laugh out loud one liners like ‘show me on the croissant where he touched you’ this book is a modern day social media rom com that you should all purchase especially as it’s currently only 99p for eBook!
