   None No current Talk conversations about this book.  whakaora | Mar 5, 2023 |   Di contro Luke appare troppo tenero e accomodante tanto da riuscire a sopportare e perdonare quasi oltre il comprensibile. Una storia, a mio gusto, tirata troppo per le lunghe e dove la voglia di apparire a tutti i costi raggiunge livelli incomprensibili anche per la Becky conosciuta nei libri precedenti. In più il finale non mi è piaciuto per niente perché tutto rimane in sospeso e lo sciogliersi del “mistero” è rimandato al prossimo libro che spero sia decisamente migliore di questo che, per la sua inconsistenza e insipienza, riesce a far perdere punti a tutta la serie. In definitiva una Kinsella del tutto irriconoscibile per un libro che sembra uscito dalle mani di una sua bruttissima copia.

"#1 New York Times bestselling author Sophie Kinsella returns to her beloved Shopaholic series with Becky Brandon (nee Bloomwood) newly arrived in Hollywood and starry-eyed. She and her two-year-old daughter, Minnie, have relocated to L.A. to join Becky's husband, Luke, who is there to handle PR for famous actress Sage Seymour. Becky can't wait to start living the A-list lifestyle, complete with celebrity sightings, yoga retreats, and shopping trips to Rodeo Drive. But she really hopes to become a personal stylist--Sage's personal stylist--if only Luke would set up an introduction. Then, unexpectedly, Becky is offered the chance to dress Sage's archrival, and though things become a bit more complicated, it's a dream come true! Red carpet premieres, velvet ropes, paparazzi clamoring for attention--suddenly Becky has everything she's ever wanted. Or does she? Praise for Sophie Kinsella and her Shopaholic novels "Faster than a swiping Visa, more powerful than a two-for-one coupon, able to buy complete wardrobes in a single sprint through the mall--it's Shopaholic!"--The Washington Post "Kinsella has a genuine gift for comic writing."--The Boston Globe "Kinsella's Bloomwood is plucky and funny. You won't have to shop around to find a more winning protagonist."--People"-- No library descriptions found. |

This book, however, had a total cliffhanger, which was kind of disappointing. I'd loved how the previous ones could for the most part be read alone. I'd also thought that this would be the last book of the series forever.
Of all the books, this was unfortunately probably my least favourite. I found myself really not liking Becky. I've never been able to relate very much to her, but I could always envision myself being friends with her. However, she really changed in this one and acted rather selfishly at a lot of points. Despite the ending, this really just wasn't the greatest.
I still maintain that Kinsella's standalone books are much better than the Shopaholic series; however, these books have still been a lot of fun to read and it's been great to see Becky in all these different scenarios.
