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!!

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

Oh my dear Lord. I just joined the Confessions of a Shopaholic group on MySpace  and the first thread I see is mention of 2 Sophie Kinsella movies. One for Confessions and the other for Can You Keep A Secret?(which I have also read). 
Who would you cast to play Becky? Luke?
ETA: Her website http://www.randomhouse.com/bantamdell/kinsella/

I don't know about Becky, but when I was reading the book, I always picture Luke looking like Julian McMahon (from Nip/Tuck and Charmed)
I totally fell in love with him ever since I wacthed Charmed and secretly hoped he could be with Phoebe
How about you?

Yeah Jules is some kinda hunk! Its kinda funny, as his Dad excelled in politics and became the Prime Minister of Australia, while Julian has gotten all the way to Hollywood. I've admired him since I first saw him in the aussie tv-show, "Home and Away".

CT4 and CutieCat, I always pictured Colin Firth in the role of Luke but that could be because he's pretty much my go-to guy when I think of an actor with a British accent.
I loved Confessions of a Shopaholic, Shopaholic Takes Manhattan and the wedding one (whose name escapes me at the moment).
Am I the only one who wanted to go out and buy a Denny and George scarf after reading Confessions? I was really disappointed to find out that Denny and George doesn't exist in real life!
