Shopaholic Ties the Knot
10 journalers for this copy...
The irresistible heroine of Confessions of a Shopaholic and Shopaholic Takes Manhattan is back!--in a hilarious tale of mothers and daughters, mothers and sons, and one blushing bride who just can’t say no to saying “I do.”
Life has been good for Becky Bloomwood: She’s become the best personal shopper at Barneys, she and her successful entrepreneurial boyfriend, Luke, are living happily in Manhattan’s West Village, and her new next door neighbor is a fashion designer! But with her best friend, Suze, engaged, how can Becky fail to notice that her own ring finger is bare? Not that she’s been thinking of marriage (or diamonds) or anything...
Then Luke proposes! Bridal registries dance in Becky’s head. Problem is, two other people are planning her wedding: Becky’s overjoyed mother has been waiting forever to host a backyard wedding, with the bride resplendent in Mum’s frilly old gown. While Luke’s high-society mother is insisting on a glamorous, all-expenses-paid affair at the Plaza. Both weddings for the same day. And Becky can’t seem to turn down either one. Can everyone’s favorite shopaholic tie the knot before everything unravels?
Yet another great novel by Sophie Kinsella!

received this in the mail. Will read, review and get it on its way ASAP!
oops! duplicate post!
These books are always such guilty pleasures. This one nicely wraps up things for all the characters. You see a little more maturity in Becky as she begins to worry about the people around her and what's best for them which leads her into all new foibles and mishaps. There's also a little more come-uppance for those characters who have made Becky miserable in the past. I loved it as only a Shopaholic fan can! Off to nafybocs!
The book arrived today. I will read it and pass it on ASAP.
I loved this book. It's so much fun reading about the crazy situations that Becky gets herself into and the unlikely ways she gets herself out of them.
Mailed the book on to momofap today. Casperette asked to be skipped.

This book just came today in the mail. I will start reading it later today. Thank you for sharing.
Read this book over the weekend. I was laughing so hard I couldn't put the book down, had to find out how the whole story was going to end. This was a wonderful, "lite" read.
I sent this book onto the next person on the list, Today...08-30-04.

Just received the book today. will start reading it tonight as I am devoid of any chick lit! :p
mailing this book out to Popsie as i have been unable to contact Lacrimosa. No replies. hmmm....anyway, i'm tired of waiting so i'm sending this out to the following person on the list. I hope that is ok?
Thanks portable-solace for setting this up and to AppleAngel for posting the book on to me.
This is the first book in the Shopoholic series series I have read - and I LOVED it. It made me laugh out loud a more than a few times. Let me know if there are any Bookrings for other books in this series as I want to read them all.
Have just sent a PM to Lacrimosa and will post it on as soon as I have a reply.

Arrived on Jan 13 . .
And finished on the weekend. I found myself laughing out loud at the letter from the banks (along with others) that are placed in between the chapters. Hillarious! I will PM the next in line.
Update Jan 26 . .

looking forward to this one. thanks for sharing the book!
BTW, I forgot to mention that the poor book had a rough trip here - the package somehow got ripped and the book is a little worse for wear, but it's definitely still in fair condition. Now it just needs a little TLC. I'm glad it made it!

I just finished. It was a light, entertaining read. Another enjoyable Sophie Kinsella! Thanks so much for sharing the book!
I will pass it on to Treigh once I receive her address.

UPDATE 02/24/05:Drat Drat Drat! I just realized I forgot to write "Media Mail" on the package - I hope it makes it! I was in a hurry because it's snowing and forgot to write it on there before I dropped it in the box! I have my return address on there if it gets sent back for postage. Treigh, if they make you pay an extra dollar for being short on postage because I forgot to write 'Media Mail', I will send you one! Drat!

03/02/05 - if this one doesn't make it 'cause I forgot to write "media mail" on the package, I will buy another one to continue the ring... *sigh* ...I hope it makes it!

Tried emailing Stormy Breeze for an address to mail this book on..haven't heard yet. Will give it a bit longer in case StormyBreeze checks here. I guess if I don't hear back, I will keep going down the list. Treigh
