New Shopaholic book details!
For those who like the series, I found a summary of the book and the cover, although I'm guessing this is the British cover and it won't be the same in the United States.
"Becky Brandon (nee Bloomwood) thought motherhood would be a breeze - but it's trickier than she thought. Two-year-old Minnie is a little tearaway who has created havoc everywhere from Harrods to Harvey Nicks to her own christening. She hires taxis at random, her favourite word is 'Mine', and she already has a penchant for Balenciaga bags. Becky is at her wits' end. On top of this, she and Luke are still living with her Mum and Dad, there's a big financial crisis so everyone's having to Cut Back - including all her personal shopping clients - and her husband Luke is feeling low after the death of his beloved stepmother. To cheer Luke up, Becky decides to throw him a surprise birthday party - on a budget - and that's when things become really complicated. As Becky tries to keep the arrangements secret, misunderstandings and excuses sprout everywhere, and soon she's told so many fibs she can't keep track of them. Will Becky pull off the surprise? Will Minnie give everything away? Will Minnie's godparents ever stop arguing? Who will end up on the naughty step and who will get a gold star? And what will happen when Becky discovers Luke is keeping a big secret too?”

I wanted to like this book- I read the first one, was kind of meh about it, read the second and got mad at myself for spending the time.
I did love the movie though.
