Let me say that I think Becky is a twit...she seemed to be coming around at the end and I'll read the next one to see if she's still a moron. I suspect she will be...but I do like the love interest of Luke Brandon so I'd like to see what plays out with that.
This was a cute, light read while on vacation. It was nothing groundbreaking, but it was certainly enjoyable. Rebecca is absolutely unlikeable, but that somehow made her efforts endearing, and I wanted to see her growth.
Rebecca's growth suddenly went completely backwards with no explanation. Guess I'll have to keep reading the series to see more....

The last chapter was a disappointment though...Rebecca's growth suddenly went completely backwards with no explanation. Guess I'll have to keep reading the series to see more....
I wasn't impressed with this book. I found the character of Becky to be extremely superficial with no real interesting qualities. She spends the majority of the book making terrible decisions, swearing to do better, then doing the same thing in the next paragraph. During the first 3/4 of the book she has absolutely no character development making it tedious to read. The last 4th has a very minimal amount of character development culminating in a very abrupt ending to the book that leaves almost nothing addressed. There are redeeming things about the story such as the neighbors of Becky's parents and their part of the story as well as Becky's flatmate, Suze. Sadly it isn't enough to carry the story and the book falls short.
Sophie Kinsella is a fantastic author, but this series really puts me off. This character is a pathological liar, hurting herself and others - that just isn't cute, to me.
Surprisingly British....a lot of differences from the movie and for once, the movie was a lot better than the book.
Really cute and light hearted!! The only thing was that parts of it got really repetitive and the character could sometimes be a little annoying. But I can't wait to read the next book, Shopaholic takes Manhattan!
First of all this book was very different from the movie. I was just amazed how some parts were so much better described as they were filmed. And it was just the perfect book for me. I study to be a journalist. So that was absolutely a win for me. And it’s written so girlish, it’s just ‘aaaawh’ the entire time.
In the beginning I remembered the story from the movie. But after I while I had lost this idea. I began to see the book as a different story. It was so much more than was shown in the movie. I loved the little details. The things that make reading this book fun.
Rebecca Bloomwood is such a good character. She has been interesting from the beginning. I love how she describes journalism. A job where you just type over flyers. It’s funny, because sometimes it’s just really all that you do. She works in a sector where she doesn’t belong. It seems like she doesn’t even know about finance. I really find that funny. How the hell was she accepted at that job offer???
And I love even more about her. The way she fancies Luke, but she is to confident to tell herself that. It’s just cute. Sometime like that really belongs in a book like this. But sometimes I really hated Rebecca. Like the moment with Tarquin, it’s not fair to think like that.
I did think it was a bit boring sometimes. The Derek Smeath story was good, but her trying to escape him became a bit boring after a while. I do love how the wrote about Derek. He seems like such een douch. I could really picture him, a little man with classes and his her all messed up. A bit like Jon Heder in Napoleon Dynamite. Just a nerd.
I loved how the ending started when she came on television. That scene was so intense. I was smiling at the pages. I loved how it was described. It was funny and very truthful. I think it’s one of the best scenes out of the entire book. I was quite disappointed by the rest of the ending. I had a feeling that I saw it coming. But still a great book to read. I would love to read the rest of the series. Quite curious how this series will go on.
This book shows that money isn’t everything. Friends and family are much more important. But still clothes are fun too. (;
