Shopaholic Abroad by Sophie Kinsella

Who can't love Rebecca Bloomwood and her shopping addiction? Haven't we all got a bit of the Bloomwood shopping-bug in us? Well I certainly can relate to her!!

She back and she is off to New York! Credit Card - Check, Luke Brandon the gorgeous boyfriend - Check, Lots of spare empty cases - Check....off she goes.


After the first world wind book I was excited to read Shopaholic Abroad to see what Rebecca could possibly get up to next and in true Kinsella fashion I was laughing all the way to the last page.


Once in New York Rebecca discovers designer sample sales, Bloomingdales, Tiffany's not to mention her small denial that spending a $ is actually more like spending monopoly money...it just isn't real right?


Unfortunately while spending frantically in the big apple, the media back in good old Britain have been keeping a close watch on their daytime TV financial advisor and Rebecca gets busted big time for her shopping addiction and her debt. Losing Luke, New York and her job Rebecca thinks she has lost it all, but in her usual resilient style she makes a smashing come back.


Not to be missed by anyone who is a fan of Kinsella's wit and fast paced comedies.


9/10
