Description:

Sophie Kensella brings back the lovable, ditzy Becky Bloomfield in Shopaholic & Sister. The fourth novel in the Shopaholic series begins at the end, the end of Becky's 10 month, round-the-world honeymoon. Reality hits when she faces two truckloads of souvenirs, most she had forgotten, crammed into her and her new husband's loft. Needless to say, their bills are outrageous! Luke is not happy and puts Becky on a strict budget. Then surprise, her best friend and shopping pal,Suze has a new best friend. Could things get worse? Yes! Her parents are acting strange for good reason. Apparently, daddy Bloomfield had been a bit of a scoundrel in his day and Becky finds she has a half sister, Jessica. Alas, all in not lost, Becky sees Jessica as her new best friend. Unfortunately, Jessica has a very different set of ideals, and shopping is not one of them. Jessica is not only an environmental activists, but frugal to boot. As their relationship develops, it explodes into many laugh-out-loud moments and even a few tears.

      • Shopaholic And Sister

        Shopaholic and Sister is a great book! It is very well written and the characters are not only lovable but they are also easy to relate to. You find yourself wanting to read every Shopaholic book by Sophie Kinsella. Shopaholic and Sister is not only funny and light-hearted, but there is also a lesson within the humor. This is a must-read!

    • Becky Brandon (nee Bloomwood) returns with a vengeance in bestseller Kinsella's fourth Shopaholic novel. Her 10-month globe-trot with hubby Luke was a shopping spree disguised as a honeymoon-heck, Becky will walk across hot coals for an aquamarine necklace (and thereby trick her Sri Lankan yogi into thinking she's achieved enlightenment)-but the problems of the real world (sort of) surface once the happy couple lands back in London. ("Luke's penthouse has its own lift right to the front door, which is just so cool!"). Even lovely Luke's patience is supremely tried when those two truckloads of purchases show up. What's worse: Becky's best friend, Suze, has found a new best friend, and her parents have discovered another daughter. Seems Dad had a fling with a train stewardess back in the 1970s-and Jessica was the result. Becky is over the moon, picturing heart-to-heart talks, shopping excursions, sisters' nights out and so forth-so she's totally unprepared for the actual Jessica, a frugal environmentalist who (gasp!) actually hates shopping. Prattling Becky tries to charm her sis, but it doesn't seem to be working; meanwhile, Luke is preoccupied with his job, and then there's that stranger from Milan whom Becky owes for getting her that impossibly perfect Angel bag... what does he want with Luke? Of course everything will work out in the end-and there will be a nice message about the importance of friends and family-but this installment isn't as winning as its predecessors. Agents, Kim Witherspoon (U.S.) and Araminta Whitley (U.K.). (Sept. 28) Forecast: There are more than three million Shopaholic books in print, and tiring though the materialism grows, this latest addition should see Kinsella's usual numbers.
