Sophie Kinsella

Has anyone read any of her books they're brilliant. I find it relly easy to identify with the characters I find them a little bit more realistic even if the situations can be a little "out there". I recommend:
Secret Dreamworld of a Shopaholic
Shopaholic Goes Abroad
Shopaholic ties The Knot
Shopaholic & Sister
Can You Keep A Secret
The Undomestic Goddess

Are those the titles in a different country? In the US the titles are:
-Confessions of a Shopaholic
-Shopaholic takes Mahattan
-Shopaholic Ties the Knot
-Shopaholic and Sister

I love all of her books, she also writes in another penname, Madeline Wickham. Cocktails for Three is a book under that name. All of her books are very good.

This one's my favorite - Secret Dreamworld of a Shopaholic

I don't usually like chick-lit but this is awsome, so witty, funny and sarcastic even. Love her.

I found two of the Shopaholic books at a used bookstore.

Good to know, b/c I usually don't like chick lit either.

The Confessions of a Shopaholic/Secret Dream World of a Shopaholic is the first of that series, but Can You Keep a Secret and The Undomestic Goddess are on their own.

I read Can You Keep a Secret first and I loved it. I laughed out loud all the way through it. I've only read the first Shopaholic book and really liked it. I just bought the second one over the weekend.

I've read all of the Shopaholic series and I think she's a great chick-lit writer and I love all of her books. I think she's got a new one that will be about Shopaholic and Baby which should be good; she's made everything else really funny so far so I'm looking forward to it.

Shopaholic and Baby comes out on February 27th, 2007, that's what Sophie Kinsella said on her website.

I read Can you keep a secret a week ago! I was totally addicted to that book and finished it in a flash! I't so funny! Now I want to read the whole Shopaholic series...I've seen there's one with a bay too....what's the title in English? Here in Italy the whole series is called "I love shopping" and something else and this last one it's "I love shopping for the baby".
