Who loves "Confessions of a Shopaholic"?
I heard so many great reviews about it, so I recently picked up a copy and ever since, I got addicted to it and loved it 
Does anyone else loves this book also?

Decent mind candy - but for some reason, I can't get into the latest one.

LOOOOOOOOOVE this series!! The last one was Shopaholic and Sister, and it leaves room open for a baby, but Sophie Kinsella hasn't written one after it! There's SO MUCH so she could do for Becky Bloomwood having a baby, I hope it's continued!!

Shopaholic and Baby is due in February 2007. Pun intended.

I've read them all, but I did not like "Shopoholic and Sister" at all, for some reason.
The "Do Want to Know a Secret" and the "Undomestic Goddess" are both great, though.

I read the first one -- to be honest, it read like something I would've written when I was 14 and even then would've realized it was crappy and predictable. To be fair, I'm kind of a snob about books, so no big deal.

I think as long as you take it what it's for: mindless chick lit, they're entertaining. Sometimes it's nice to have a break for fluffy fiction.

woohoo!
and I can see another interesting series of Shopaholic and Daugther ....spending loads of money on her daugther, haha. In fact, I read this newspaper article a while ago saying that parents nowadays spend tons of money on designer baby stuff. Like coach baby hats, baby clothes and such... 
and on another note, I found myself thinking in british accent these days...how bloody scary... haha
