Confessions of a Shopaholic – Book Review
confessions of a shopaholic book review sophie kinsella
I enjoyed Hugh Dancy’s performance and Isla Fisher along with the rest of the cast…
We all loved the movie, and now I’ve got to say the book was awesome, a real page turner!
I was browsing around the flea market last week and stumbled upon this book for $1.
A dollar that was well spent!
I didn’t use my credit card, I used my piggy bank.
My emergency piggy bank with dimes, nickels and pennies.
I had no money but I had some change and I invested in a book for once!
My premise was, I loved the movie and now I should read the book!
Actually it was more a research move.
How can I write a book and have it turned into a movie?
Then I read the acknowledgements.
I’d like to thank my friend and agent…
Now I know how it got published.
At first I was struggling to read it, all the fashion name dropping and financial stuff, but then I got into the story and literally couldn’t put the book down.
Believe me I tried, I was supposed to watch Raw last night.
I sat beside my honey and read the book and missed most of the matches.
I did see Chris Jericho get batted around in that lumberjack match and then I went back to the book.
I was a zombie stuck in a time warp.
Harold tried to talk to me, but I was off in another world of fun and mystery!
I started reading Confessions of a Shopaholic yesterday morning and finished it late last night!
The book is a little different from the movie which was odd but I’ve seen that happen before!
I could relate to this book, in fact it reminded me of my own life, but we won’t go there…
I loved the characters imagination as each day brings new dreams, visions and possibilities!
It was a diary of imagination , mixed with financial know how and you learn many things about the fashion and world of finance!
I think it’s great that the author who was a financial journalist for many years, adapted a book around something as tedious as money and made it spectacular!
I learned many things and most of it I had no clue what she was talking about but it was fun just the same.
I never follow the world of fashion, other than watching America and Canada’s Next Top Model! 🙂
Here is the premiere of the movie with Sophie Kinsella, Isla Fisher (Becky)
Isla Fisher talks about being Becky – Rebecca Bloomwood!
