Ok, there are sometimes when I want to read vapid literature. I actually like this cheeky British humor. About a girl who struggles to control her spending habits (losing the battle) and tries to find true love.

A light-hearted, fun read. I've had people tell me it's a fun book, but I never thought I would enjoy it. I picked it up for $1 on the clearance rack at HPB figuring that even if I hated it, I was only out $1. If you're looking for a deep, intellectual book- this is not it. After reading Sarah's Key which left me pretty emotionally drained, and working my way little by little through Take This Job and Ship It which is fascinating, informative and depressing all at once...well, I really needed a light, mindless read. Confessions of a Shopaholic fit that bill perfectly.
I love Becky. She is far from perfect, but she's hilarious. I love her running commentary in her head- when she is absolutely convinced that she has THE winning lottery number, when she tries to convince herself that she is going to get married to Tarquin, when she is questioning whether it's okay to talk about salaries and I love how she ends up being somewhat intelligent (though not really).
It's a fun, escapist, guilty pleasure.
Kind of like Twilight.
But the writing is better.

The book constantly talks about finance and money but if you look past all that it's about a girl with a real spending problem. I really liked it and hope to read the next book in the series.

This was a good, light read. The main character, Rebecca, is someone that we can probably all identify with at some point in our own lives. She loves everything and wants it all, but her budget doesn't allow it. Sometimes I wanted to ring her neck and tell her to back away, but by the end I was glad to see that things were finally working out in her favor. The abrupt ending was not what I expected, but now I am ready to read the next book!!

The only chick lit book that I have read that I absolutely love. Primarily because I laughed so much and I saw a bit of me in the main character. And it may also, probably, will be the only one.
