Shopaholic & Sister
I loved this book! Becky is someone that you just have to love at times is frustrating but so sweet. I love all the books in this series.
Shopaholic & Sister
Becky Bloomwood is back! She is now Mrs. Brandon and have just returned from her ten-month honeymoond with Luke, having travelled all over the world. As usual, she was addicted to shopping, buying multiple of things she don't need and having them shipped secretly back to London, without Luke's knowledge. Eager to return home after her long honeymoon, Becky was in for a surprise when her parents introduced her long-lost sister, Jess to her. Becky was especially eager to have a sister as she felt that her best friend, Suze, had replaced Becky while she way away. Unfortunately, Jess was totally different from Becky and winning her heart would prove to be very challenging.Even though many people find Becky's behavior to be annoying and irritating, I find that this is still a fun book to read, especially if you have been following the Shopaholic series. It's fast-paced, sweet, and contains many funny moments. The way Kinsella ended her book, there may be possibly be a fifth book of this series. This is definitely a must-read book for all Sophie Kinsella's fans.
Shopaholic & Sister
I immediately started reading this book when I received it in the mail and finished it in about 3 hours. I have the other books from the series and loved them all as well. This latest addition is any better than the others, but a great continuation of the trials and tribulations of Becky Bloomwood-Brandon. The author, Sophie Kinsella, once said in an interview how much she missed Becky and that's why she wrote a fourth book. As soon as I started reading I realized I felt the same way! Becky is such a wonderful character and anyone can relate to her, even if you don't like to shop! Everyone has their own flaws they can never seem to get over, but they still have those wonderful people in their lives who still love them in spite of it all!Anyone who is reading this has hopefully already read the synopsis of the book. As you know, Becky has found out she has a long lost half sister who is her complete opposite and everything of course goes downhill. She also begins having problems with her husband and best friend to boot!This is of course highly recommended for fans of the other three Shopaholic books and fans of chick lit in general. I dont' want to give away the end, but from what I can tell I hope Ms. Kinsella is getting busy on book #5! :)
Shopaholic & Sister
I enjoyed reading this book as others from the author. "Becky, character in these books are just too funny'. People would catch me laughing out loud in public places as I couldn't put it down. Becky, is Becky and she will always be clever and ideal in her way, in her world.
Shopaholic & Sister
All of the Shopaholic books are great but this one was not as good as the others. Don't get me wrong it is still worth reading and leaves the impression that there is more to come but it simply does not compare to the first three books.Becky is even more out of control than ever in this installment of the series, when she meets her long lost half sister, who happens to HATE shopping. Becky with her overwhelming desire to be the best sister ever (because she was always an only child) tries so hard to get her new sister (who happens to be everything Becky is not) to be her best friend. The usual hilarity that comes with Becky insues and Kinsella once again provides her reader with great fun and laughs.Ending gives the impression that there is more of Becky's life to come... can't wait for another book in this great series.
Shopaholic & Sister
I was really excited when I found there would be a fourth Shopaholic book since I loved reading the first three. When I started reading, it was easy to get back into even though it had been a while since I read the others. Becky still had her quirks and it was fun to see how her and Lukes honeymoon was going. Like always it was also fun to read about her shopping adventures and find out what extravagent purchases she had made this time that she could not afford.After she met her sister though, the book started to go down hill. Becky became so self-absorbed trying way to hard to win her sister over. To me, this didn't seem to fit Becky's character. Another big dissapointment was some of the problems she was facing with those close to her and the way she handled them.I managed to get myself through the book, laughing at some parts and frowning at others, and was happy I finished it. The ending throws a twist in and makes you wonder in anticipation about Becky's next big adventure.
