The Twitter Diaries: 2 Cities, 1 Friendship, 140 Characters by Georgie Thompson, Imogen Lloyd Webber
3.0
The story follows a year in the lives of two 30-somethings, Stella Cavill and Tuesday Fields, who meet at a New Years Eve party.
The majority of the novel has a sort of modern epistolary narrative, told through the tweets between the two women. To maintain accuracy, the author stuck to the 140 character limit of each tweet. Although this kept the pace of the conversation, many details and background characters
had very little depth. However, I did grow fond of the two protagonists, even when the plot lacked a bit of substance.
I wanted an easy holiday read and that’s exactly what it is. A feel good book, for sure.
