I have read all of the Sophie Kinsella's Shopaholic series and have enjoyed them, however I am beginning to feel that the series has run its course and over the past two-three novels I have found that the enjoyment is beginning to fade.

At the end of the last book, Shopaholic to the stars, Becky Brandon was begininng a road trip to find her father and best friend's husband, who they fear may have been brainwashed by a Hollywood sect. This book follows them on this road trip and in true Becky Brandon style things don't go quite according to plan.

What I did like in this book was that Becky is beginning to 'act her age' and is not the centre of attention - there are times in the book where she has the oppurtunity to spend, spend, spend but she doesn't and is beginning to retalise that other things are more important. I would like to see if Kinsella continues with this new way of thinking for Brandon and takes her down the family route - as her daughter is definitely taking over the Becky Brandon mantal!

Kinsella is a fantastic writer and I do enjoy reading her books, although I would love to see her write more of her standalone novels and leave Becky Brandon on the shelf for a few years.

Thank you to the publisher, Transworld Publishers, for sending me the book to read in return for an honest review.
