Book Reviews of Shopaholic & Sister (Shopaholic Series)
Book Review: Becky Bloomwood is Lots of Fun-Again! Lots of Laughs Here!
Summary: 5 Stars
Here we go again with Becky Bloomwood, and her obsessive need for always shopping-and running up credit cards! In this book, she and Luke will finish up their honeymoon sooner than they had expected to, and go back home. Becky of course, can't resist buying an expensive angel bag before they leave, and she must keep it a secret from Luke-which she is famous for doing all the time.
When they reach home, things have changed. Becky's best friend Suze, is now tied up with Lulu who also has kids, and seems to have no time at all for Suze. And, that isn't all of course. She has an unknown sister through her father, namely Jess, who is quite the very opposite of Becky. She has a zero personality, and HATES shopping! She is a cheap-o and finds all sorts of ways to harbor her money. So right off, she and Becky don't get along. In fact, when Becky takes her shopping, Jess just stands there bored while Becky is completely, totally enthralled with the mall stores!
Luke and Becky have problems because of Becky's shopping problem. When not one, but several lorries drive up to their apartmenet with all of Becky's lavish items, Luke is horrified. They have words many times over this, so Becky proceeds to sell many of the items over ebay, convincing Luke she can use it to pay off all of these bills. But then she spends more-and more.
When Jess and Becky really have it a big fight over her lying and shopping habits, Jess gives up altogether and doesn't want to be sisters. But an event makes Becky take a second look at what she is doing-and she wants Jess's help. But it may be too late for them to make up, and not only that, but with Luke too.
Summary of Shopaholic & Sister (Shopaholic Series)
Becky Bloomwood, America?s favorite shopaholic, is back in a hilarious, heartwarming tale of married life, best friends, and long-lost sisters (and the perils of simply having to own an Angel handbag!).
What?s a round-the-world honeymoon if you can?t buy the odd souvenir to ship back home? Like the twenty silk dressing gowns Becky found in Hong Kong?the hand-carved dining table (and ten chairs) from Sri Lanka?the, um, huge wooden giraffes from Malawi (that her husband Luke expressly forbade her to buy)?
Only now Becky and Luke have returned home to London and Luke is furious. Two truckloads of those souvenirs have cluttered up their loft, and the bills for them are outrageous. Luke insists Becky go on a budget. And worse: her beloved best friend Suze has found a new best friend while Becky was away. Becky?s feeling rather blue?when her parents deliver some incredible news. She has a long-lost sister! Becky is thrilled! She?s convinced her sister will be a true soulmate. They?ll go shopping together, have manicures together.?Until she meets Jessica for the first time and gets the shock of her life. Surely Becky Bloomwood?s sister can?t?hate shopping?
