The Secret Dreamworld of a Shopaholic

"Which means that by the time I'm halfway through my Fiorentina, I've drunk almost an entire bottle of champagne, and I'm... Well, frankly, I am completely pissed. My face is tingling and my eyes are sparkling, and my arm gestures are a lot more erratic than usual. But this doesn't matter. In fact, being pissed is a good thing - because it means I'm also delightfully witty and lively and am more or less carrying the conversation single-handedly"

Ah... the incomparable Rebecca "Becky" Bloomwood. I have read this series for many, many times, and I am re-reading it again just so that I can review the books on BookJetty!

The first book in the famous Shopaholic series introduce us to the world of Becky.. or rather, the imaginary world of Becky. It's hilarious reading how flippant she is with money, and how increasingly imaginative her excuses are evading the banks.

It is also amusing to read how, despite all circumstances, Becky was lucky in many turns. If only in real life that happens.

Now I am onto the second book! (read less)
