Shopaholic!

Sophie Kinsella

3.5 AVERAGE


Not a brain cell was used during the reading of this book.

This was an enjoyable book.
Even if you don't know the stores she's in love with, you can fill in the blank with your favorite. Anyone who enjoys shopping should be able to relate with Rebecca, she's sweet and makes mistakes that we have all made with following our emotions rather then our heads.
I hope the other books in this series are as enjoy as the first one.

An easy read. It may just be fluff but it is a classic in its own genre.

This book was pretty awful and sends out a terrible message at the end. The character doesn't learn to change her ways or make up for her habit of being a compulsive liar.

How it ever became popular is a mystery to me.

I subtracted a star just because the character spends about 85% of the book acting like a lazy, spoiled little idiot, and I was getting pretty annoyed by it. But by the end she kind of improved. And it was a funny read. I also love reading books set in contemporary London.

Just took me a while to get through. Becky was annoying, but happy
she got her happy ending of money for her shopping problem and the boy of her dreams
