Sophie Kinsella’s latest book in the Shopaholic series will have you chuckling away at Becky Bloomwood’s madcap, parallel universe. In the midst of a recession, Becky is introduced to the wonders of pound shops, begins a successful new personal shopping service, meets an Ultimate Nanny who has buck teeth and a love for carrots and tries to organise a surprise birthday party for husband Luke, with very funny results.
