The reason I decided to read Confessions of a Sociopath Social Climber is because I saw the horrible movie starring Jennifer Love Hewitt last year. I liked the character before she (SPOILER ALERT) gained a heart and became noble. I liked the idea so I wanted to read the book. If I was Adele Lang, I would sue everyone involved with the movie.

The book is absolutely hilarious! It's a year in the life of Katya Livingston. It starts off a journal that Katya has to write in order to keep attract show more of her outrageous spending. Then because a weekly column for a small newspaper. The best thing is that Katya learns nothing! Not even when she becomes the "victim" of scathing but true biography on herself.

Confessions...is a quick read and an absolute riot!

Very disappointing. I'm not sure if the author was trying to skewer the chick-lit phenomenon, or if she honestly thought that writing about a loathsome, wholey unlikeable character was a good idea. At any rate, I only finished this book because I thought for sure that by the end, the main character would display SOME redeeming qualities, but sadly, I was wrong. YUCK!
