Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Read the first, had to read the next!
Review: You can't just read one Sophie Kisella book. I read the first, then read this one. And as soon as I finsihed that bought the next. Want fun? Buy this book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hilarious
Review: After I read the first book of Shopaholic series, I am hooked on Sohie Kinsella books. I read this one in one day and enjoyed it a lot.
British humour is wonderful and with a touch of New York glimmer, you get the best picture.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Love it!
Review: The second part of the shopaholic trilogy is even more hilarious and amazing--the sky-high expenditures are in U.S. Dollars!! As a self-proclaimed shopaholic, I identified with Becky's tastes in clothes, etc. Plus, I secretly used this book as a traveling guide to New York City (I wanted to visit all the fun places she went to!). It's a very entertaining book with a totally loveable heroine!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Absolutely loved this book
Review: This book is funny. You almost feel bad for Becky at times and at others I can identify with the high that she gets from shopping. Thank God I know when to say when...

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Funny, but getting old
Review: I loved the first book to this series, but I have to say that the Manhattan book made me feel that her antics were getting old. I enjoy this character and this book was quite funny, but it is frustrating to watch somebody, even a fictional character, ruin their life financially. I still gave this book four stars because I did enjoy the time I spent reading it, but it definitely failed to get the five star rating I gave to "Confessions".

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Another great book from Sophie Kinsella!!
Review: Sophie has once again managed to easily entertain me for hours on end! The stories are bolder and even better in this second book about the life of Becky Bloomwood. I can't wait to see the next in the series!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Welcome to the colonies, Ms. Bloomwood!
Review: Loved this book! Not quite as much as the first installment, because I by now I have the concept down cold, but I was still very, VERY entertained. While I did find Becky's adventures in the Big Apple funny, my absolute favorite part was her trip to the convent near the beginning of the book. It just completely captured how Becky just doesn't get it (but the nun did, and I adored how she convinced Becky to take advantage of the gift shop). Luke is a bit more fleshed out in the volume, which is a plus, but his mother was written in such a black/white way that it was hard to believe her. (Ditto Tom's bride.) Still, these are minor gripes in a book filled with delightful characters like Suze, Mel, Mr. and Mrs. Bloomwood and Luke's American business partner. I look forward to the third installment. (BTW, I realize why I keep picturing Becky as a redhead. She and Luke seem strangely reminiscent of the Riccardos. Like Lucy, Becky is always willing to tell a whopping lie when the truth will do, and she's always trying to hide her shopping from her man. And these habits get her into the wildest jams.)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Sequel!
Review: I loved this book even better than the first! I couldn't put it down, and I laughed all the way through it! I can't wait to read the next one.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great!
Review: Loved the book and can't wait till the third one!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Amazing!!
Review: I had so much fun reading this book!
For continuous fun, i'd try reading the next book Shopaholic Ties the knot.
I highly recommend this book, but only if your looking for a light book.
