Author:Sophie Kinsella
-----------------------------------------------------
The fabulous first Shopaholic novel by international No. 1 bestselling author Sophie Kinsella. The perfect pick-me-up when life is hanging in the (bank) balance . . . !
-----------------------------------------------------
Meet Rebecca Bloomwood.
She has a great flat, a fabulous wardrobe full of the season's must-haves, and a job telling other people how to manage their money. She spends her leisure time ... shopping.
Retail therapy is the answer to all her problems. She knows she should stop, but she can't. She tries Cutting Back, she tries Making More Money. But neither seems to work. The letters from the bank are getting harder to ignore. Can Becky ever escape from this dreamworld, find true love, and regain the use of her credit card?
Everybody loves Sophie Kinsella:

I almost cried with laughter
—— Daily MailYou won't have to shop around to find a more winning protagonist
—— Ireland on SundayThis book is an indulgence that is definitely worth every penny
—— New WomanFunny, honest, brilliant
—— Nina Stibbe, bestselling author of 'Love, Nina'Funny, touching, uplifting, thoroughly modern
—— Lauren Bravo, author of 'What Would the Spice Girls Do?'A funny exploration of love, friendship and female sexuality, I found this novel difficult to put down
—— Clare Fisher, author of 'All The Good Things'A Love Story For Bewildered Girls is a triumph and I don't use that word lightly. When I finished it, I wanted to start it all over again.
—— Geraldine Quigley, author of 'Music Love Drugs War'A debut novel about three women exploring the highs and lows of first love. . . It's so good to read a romcom with LGBT+ characters and that focuses on the strength of female friendship as well as romance.
—— RedI was transfixed by this funny and moving story of three women navigating their way through the complexities of love, life and the search for personal fulfilment. I was rooting for them from the start, willing each of them on to find their own particular key to happiness, which isn't necessarily where you think it will be. This exquisite depiction of misplaced love, heartbreak and emerging self-knowledge feels utterly true-to-life.
—— Sarah Haywood, author of 'The Cactus', a Richard & Judy Book Club PickFunny, sweet, wise, beautifully observed and just so full of heart. I absolutely loved it. Emma Morgan is clearly a very talented writer indeed.
