Confessions of a Shopaholic

Great book for lazy no brain reading. Read it in one sitting on the airplane.

I first picked up Confessions of a Shopoholic from Coscow thinking that it looked interresting. After the first two pages I realized I'd found myself in a book! I finished the book within the day and went out first thing the next day and bought every book I could find with Sophie Kinsella's name on it.

This book makes you laugh out loud, tense up, indignant, and even sad. It makes you feel like a young woman (at least it does me! I can sooooooooooo relate to Becky ..no pun intended lol).

This is chick lit at its best. I think Sophie Kinsella has just raised the bar and set a new standard for Chick Lit. I can definately see (am already seeing) other chick lits being compared against the Shopoholic series, and so far, even the really good lits I've read recently, are great, but just not a Shopoholic book....

Absolutely a fun read!
This book is addictive. Although the Shopaholic series is repetitive and the stories are similar, you still get sucked into reading all of them... at least I did! You can figure out that the main character's going to do something crazy...again, but everything will be fine at the end, but you still want to find out how she does it, and what other silly things she might buy throughout the story.

If you read the first book and don't like it, don't bother reading the next series.... but I think you'll like it, and I think you'll become addicted to the series like the rest of us!

For those who want a deep and thought provocing novel, this is not the book for you. But for those who want a nice fluffy beach read, or a book to have at the cottage, it is perfect. This is possibly one of the most entertaining books I have ever read. Sure, it doesn't mean anything, and it's not exactly deep, but it's fun. The author writes in a way that easily relates you to the character. And there's definitely something to be said for a book that can make you laugh out loud numerous times.

Amazing book!. Funny character. I have read evry book of the serie more then once. For someone who speak French, it worth it to buy the book in English. Easy to read!!!

love this series. I laughed out loud so much, my husband thought I was nuts. I think the most hilarious one was shopaholic and baby, but I really did enjoy them all

I loooooooooooooooove this series. I started reading it in high school actually, trying to find my next Harry Potteresque fix, and I was pleasently surprised when I came across this book.

First of all the fact that it was a series pretty much sold it for me, I'm a series junkie, I neeeed something to come next that is just as amazing and stunning as the first. I love growing with the characters, it's intense, hahaha.. totally joking, sorry.

Anyway, I feel like there isn't a person out that that can't relate to the characters in this book. Becky tries so hard , she bubbly, but her unfortunate addiction to shopping sort of muck things up for her. Luke.. oooh, Luke, he is soooo smooth and chill, a bit intimidating because of his success but once you get to know him he's suuuch a hopeless romantic, you can totally tell. Everyone has had a Luke in their lives. Susan is the best friend you want to be, or like the girl you're totally jealous of and almost envy, but you can't for long because she's soooo sweet!

All in all, it's worth driving alllll the way to the bookstore and you won't be disappointed.

This book is great. It's an easy, entertaining read and I think anyone who loves to shop can relate to the main character. I really enjoy the internal monologues that she has with herself. The ways that she tries to justify buying another pair of pants, shoes, trenchcoat, etc and how she goes through her mental inventory of all the other items in her closet that would compliment these new items resulting in a perfectly pulled together outfit! Great book. Very entertaining and something all us shoppers can relate to.

This was a great summer read, lots of laughs and fun character development. It's a light read, but still a page turner as the reader tries to think of what possible mess could the character be in next. A great price, and loved it!

If you are big into "chick lit" then this is for you. Funny, light, and mostly silly, this entire series isn't half-bad. If you are looking for something more serious, maybe you don't want to pick this up.
