Shopalicious

Shopaholic stories will always have my heart. This is not my absolute favorite, with her being slightly obnoxious and her sister ditto, Luke sexist and patronizing and Suze a bit flaky. But I still like it.

Classic Bex! Letting her good intentions get her into all sorts of mischief, including being completely lost on how to vibe with her newfound sister. Bex has this totally believable tendency to build up ideas in her head of how people/relationships should be that she overlooks the reality. I really love the Bex and Jess dynamic and wish there was more of them in the series.

This book serves a several purposes:

1) What happens after Bex and Luke's happily ever after Book 1.

2) Bex's personal growth when she realizes her sister Jess has different, unfamiliar passions and that's okay.

3) Bex's morality and emotional self-awareness out-shining her conspicuous consumerism.

4) The social rift when some friends become parents earlier than everyone else.

Love this book--it delivers on all promises and it's one of the best in the series.

Witty and quick read!
