Finally! A new Becky book that didn't make me want to smack her. In this installment, she's pregnant and she could be going totally nuts and very far into debt, but there was a restraint in the character that felt so much better for me. Yes, she still loves to shop and she buys unnecessary items, but there are a few minor changes in her that allowed me to like Becky more than ever. She even enters a competition with Luke to see who can add more to the baby's trust fund! Much better than when she took Manhattan and tied the knot. :)

Sophie Kinsella does it again, with a peek into the live of Becky Bloomberg, now married to Luke and expecting. I'm always surprised at how likable and even lovable Becky is, when her persona is developed as, well, a materialistic shopaholic. The story starts with Becky's new department store under a dark cloud of bad luck and publicity; Luke's company taking off but with a demanding new client; Becky catching wind of a new primo obstetrician to the stars; and a househunt. Bex is in her element, and it's a fun read as always.

Another great book by Sophie Kinsella. Becky Brandon's character doesn't change in this fast read. She is funny and endearing. Who couldn't love her? I only hope there is another "Shopaholic & _______________! Sophie Kinsella is one of my favorite authors!!!!
