“Sophie Kinsella keeps her finger on the cultural pulse, while leaving me giddy with laughter.”—Jojo Moyes, author of The Giver of Stars and The Last Letter from Your Lover

 
Becky Brandon’s life is blooming. She’s working at London’s newest big store, The Look, house-hunting with husband Luke (her secret wish is a Shoe Room) . . . and she’s pregnant. She couldn’t be more overjoyed—especially after discovering that shopping cures morning sickness. Everything has to be perfect for her baby: from the designer nursery and the latest stroller to top-of-the-line medical care.
 
But when the must-have celebrity obstetrician Becky’s been so desperate to see turns out to be Luke’s glamorous, intellectual ex-girlfriend, Becky’s perfect world starts to crumble. She’s shopping for two . . . but are there three in her marriage?

BONUS: This edition contains an excerpt from Sophie Kinsella’s Shopaholic to the Stars.

Piacevole e divertente, forse uno di quelli che mi è piaciuto di più della serie. ( )

Becky and Luke are back in another hilarious book in the Shopaholic series. As their relationship is progressing, now they are expecting a baby. Becky wishes to know the sex because (of course), shopping! Luke wants it to be a surprise. Couldn’t stop laughing at the scene at the doctor’s office (the narrator in this one does a fantastic job as well!) Additionally, they need to move into a house now that the baby is coming (more issues to negotiate) and when Becky finds out that there is a “obstetrician for the stars” she can have rather than her fussy old family obstetrician, she connives a way to get an appointment… only to find out the new doctor is Luke’s ex… awkward. Venetia the obstetrician is so horrible that I can’t even, and the scenes with her and Becky made me shiver. Sophie Kinsella completely has a gift for writing villains that make you want to throw the book across the room! I loved that Becky and Suze were back together in this one, and also that she and her sister had a warmer relationship as well. So many hilarious scenes, particularly at the baby shopping market. ( )

This was another great Kinsella book - the shopaholic series is so fun! Becky Brandon gets herself into all sorts of zany situations but it always turns out well in the end. I'm hoping there will be more in this series. ( )

(Note: 5 stars = rare and amazing, 4 = quite good book, 3 = a decent read, 2 = disappointing, 1 = awful, just awful. There are a lot of 4s and 3s in the world!) ( )

Just like the rest of the Shopaholic series, this book was cute and fluffy and I read the whole thing in one day. Nothing substantial here, as you would assume, but a fun casual read if you are a fan of Chick Lit. ( )
