Shopaholic and Sister by Sophie Kinsella
Review written by Vicky Tsai

I read this book over the summer and it completely changed my opinion on reading! It’s about a fashionable shopaholic, Becky Brandon, who finds her long-lost sister after 26 years. Becky is ecstatic to find out that she has a sister and plans tons of activities for them to do together. Becky’s husband, Luke, tries to convince her not to get too overjoyed because after all, the two sisters may not be similar after all. Needless to say, when the sisters finally meet, Becky finds out that her sister hates shopping! How can her sister hate shopping? Are they even sisters? These are just some of the questions Becky asks herself as she tried to forge a relationship with her long lost sister.

This is a great, light hearted read. I remember staying up late at night to finish this book; I couldn’t stop reading it because it’s hilarious and such a page-turner!

If you love shopping or if you just have a sister who's nothing like you, then you will definitely enjoy Shopaholic and Sister by Sophie Kinsella. There are a series of Shopaholic books and I can’t wait to read the rest of them!
