<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>In this all-too-true debut novel, Kinsella chronicles one woman's hilarious efforts to overcome her expensive--if stylish--addiction to shopping. The author has brilliantly tapped into our collective consumer conscience to deliver a tale of our times and a heroine who grows stronger every time she weakens.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Becky Bloomwood has a fabulous flat in London's trendiest neighborhood, a troupe of glamorous socialite friends, and a closet brimming with the season's must-haves. The only trouble is, she can't actually afford it--not any of it. Her job writing at <i>Successful Saving</i> magazine not only bores her to tears, it doesn't pay much at all. And lately Becky's been chased by dismal letters from the bank--letters with large red sums she can't bear to read. She tries cutting back. But none of her efforts succeeds. Her only consolation is to buy herself something . . . just a little something. <p/> Finally a story arises that Becky actually <i>cares</i> about, and her front-page article catalyzes a chain of events that will transform her life--and the lives of those around her--forever.<br> <b> </b><br> <b>Praise for Sophie Kinsella and <i>Confessions of a Shopaholic</i></b><br> <i> </i><br> "A hilarious tale . . . hijinks worthy of classic <i>I Love Lucy </i>episodes . . . too good to pass up."<b>--<i>USA Today</i></b> <p/> "Kinsella's Bloomwood is plucky and funny. . . .
