Ginger, I love her books. Her other books have been fun as well. I have her new one pre-ordered already. I also have the books she writes under Madeleine Wickham.

They are in the same vein as the Shopaholic books or her other ones. I think you'd enjoy them. They aren't as good as the shopaholic books but they are enjoyable.

And we sure do seem to have the same taste! LOL

Wow, I never knew about Madeleine Wickham, thanks Mames! I just got the new book but I haven't started it yet. Maybe that's what I should do instead of troll around here at whatever time in the morning it is when I can't sleep!

Maybe I'll pop in here later - I've never looked in the Library section!

I did read Confessions of a Shopaholic, just because at one time it was on the bestsellers list. However, I didn't really learn much from her book and just wondered why it became a bestseller. I agree she has a lighthearted humour but maybe I read better books and this one just didn't stand out for me and so I soon forgot about her sequels.

I've read all of those Mamie listed and loved them. Nice and light and fun books.

I read Can You Keep A Secret a few months ago - it was very cute.

I just started Remember Me? Off to another cute start.

Ginger, I read the Shopaholics series and was entertained, but at the same time, the main character bugged me a bit because I couldn't really buy (no pun intended) that such a clueless person could exist. Becky was funny, but way too flaky. I really liked The Undomestic Goddess, perhaps because I enjoyed the humor that leaned more towards sarcasm, rather than slapstick (like in the Shopaholic books).
