 Not a Jess fan July 21, 2007
Nikki-licious (Toronto Ont)
I'm sorry but im really not fond of Jess. I like the idea that they were different but Jess was just plain out annoying and rude sometimes. this was my least favourite book in the series. I think the series could've been just fine without this book. I must say that i did enjoy parts of the book (the parts that did not involve Jess)and it really did make me laugh. br /I was even surprised that Jess had a part in shopaholic and baby. i was like, what is she doing here, i thought she said she didnt know for a fact who her dad was. oh well, overall it was okay.
 Excellent book July 10, 2007

I really like this book as it has two sisters who are completely different. Very interesting to find Becky using some of Jess's tips on how to spend less money.
Loved them all February 10, 2007

There's a series of these "Shopaholic" books, and this one is my favorite. As a matter of fact, I believe she's got a new one as we speak. No, this isn't great classical literature, but it is good fun without a lot of things to turn you off. Also recently read two other books I loved which were David Sedaris' "Naked" (not what it sounds like) and Jackson McCrae's "Katzenjammer" which is set in NYC and totally wacked, in a good way. If you like humor, you'll love all the "Shopaholic" series. Also try "The Devil Wears Prada"---book and movie.

As much as I loved the first 3 Shopaholic books, I felt like this one was just unnecessary, almost as if Sophie Kinsella was trying to squeeze every last drop out of this series. Although the story was ok in itself, I started to dislike Becky by this point because it seems like she just NEVER learns and is really just a shallow idiot whoes marriage deserves to fail because she lies to and keeps so much from Luke. I know I'm probably analyzing this book as though it were meant to be more than just entertaining chick-lit, but still I just wish it was never written, for the sake of the great 3 books before it.
Fun to read, but unneeded continuation of series November 20, 2005

Shopaholic Sister, like all the previous Shopaholic books was pure pleasure to flip the pages through although like Shopaholic Takes Manhatten, it was unneeded.pStill, it was a warm welcome for the old characters again. Becky Brandon is still the same girl she was from the beginning... Only she has a half-sister, Jess, who appears to be interested in nothing but rocks, border collies, working out, and computers. And the worst part of all---she hates shopping! Becky is certain they can still have fun and be friends, but Jess doesn't seem to feel the same way. Plus, all those souvenirs from the 10-month honeymoon with Luke---in particular, that Angel bag that cost 2000 euros is now getting her in trouble with Luke in a way you'll find out once you read the book. :)pAs always, Becky is still minorly immature which makes her delightfully relateable, and many designers are mentioned which will be great for anyone who likes pop culture inserted in their books. Very light, very fun, very chicklit, very Sophie Kinsella! Which is good.
