Secrets of a Shoe Addict

An amusing read, if you enjoyed Confessions of a Shopaholic then you might enjoy this book. Unbelievable circumstances lead 3 friends into an even more unbelievable solution. Silly and funny.

This was a cute story by an author I haven't read before. I wouldn't call this chicklit but it is a nicely odd girlfriend story. Neat that all have their secrets and proof that nobody's life is perfect on the inside. I liked the spunky shoe addict as a main character because she was not a cookie cutter perfect blue eyed blonde, thin, etc. etc.

I am sorry to say that this book was not nearly as engaging as its predecessor. While there was some overlap of characters I wouldn't call this book a sequel. However I feel that this books story was not nearly as strong. I found myself struggling to read it and forcing myself to finish it. While the book was not poorly written, I think that story left a lot to be desired in plot and character development. I am not usually this critical of books I deem "chick lit', but compared to the first book this one was a disappointment.

Entertaining with unenough humor and unexpected situations to keep me going. Not quite light enough for me to consider it chic-lit but close.

It's not very often that I would say a sequel book was better than the first, but this is one exception... I really enjoyed Secrets of a Shoe Addict by Beth Haribson, the follow-up novel to Shoe Addicts Anonymous.

Who could image that one school trip to Las Vegas would result in such a list of 'Oops' events. An evening that starts out so innocent, turns out so wrong... who ever said 'What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas' sure didn't take these ladies into account.

With the re-introduction of Sandra Vanderslice, from the first book, this book was a big hit and anyone who enjoys a good chick-lit novel will love this one.

A very nicely done example of silly summer reading
