Sophie Kinsella brings Becky Bloomwood back into our lives with humor and heart.
Becky is still shopping way too much but she has involved into the modern age: she is an online shopaholic! But Becky is distracted by her online prizes by the Christmas Holiday. Her parents have asked her t host Christmas! Becky is overwhelmed! There is so much to do and so many people to please! It doesn't help that her ex-boyfriend, now a rock idol, has sauntered into her life. Can Becky keep it together this Christmas Season or is she in over her head?
I love Becky but I am sad that she still hasn't gotten past buying too much stuff and hiding it from her husband. The good news is that while that stays the same so does the heart that goes with Becky. Becky loves shopping for others and will go above and beyond for the perfect present so that idea of care is magnified by the fact that she wants her family to have the perfect Christmas. While there may be instances where she buys just to make herself happy, she shops to show how much she loves her family and friends.
Kinsella has always balanced her stories keeping them from being too frivious while not dragging them down with the moral. This novel, in particular, made me both laugh out loud and wee. I found myself so much in Becky this time and empathized with her more than ever.
With just as much fun and just as much heart, Christmas Shopaholic is Becky at her best.

Thank you to NetGalley, Sophie Kinsella and Random House for this ARC.

Ah, Becky Brandon (nee Bloomwood). How I've missed you so.

Sophie Kinsella's Shopaholic series are so funny, and addicting! Becky is back, with her usual quirkiness (or edgy-ness this time around), but now she has to plan and host Christmas for the family. I love Becky, have loved her since the first Shopaholic book. This book was great, with some definite laugh out loud moments. Why haven't they made more movies about this series??

Another fantastic book by Sophie Kinsella. I love all her work (including her Madeleine Wickham work), but the Shopaholic series is my favorite.

I devoured this in a day, as usual Rebecca Brandon nee bloomwood is as charming and quirky as ever. When Sophie Kinsella announced another book I was So excited.
The book seemed to of taken place further down the road than where we last left off but was nothing short of thrilling and invigorating.

Excellent read for anyone looking for a laugh or a decent series to follow.

This is a perfect Christmas book. It’s witty, hilarious, eccentric and fun. Definitely pick this up for the holidays!

What a delight Christmas Shopaholic turns out to be! I loved every aspect, each nuance of this wonderful story. Becky is called upon to host Christmas at her house this year. As she plans and shops for her fun friends and family, she encounters numerous obstacles and adventures, each humorous in its own right. I chuckled frequently, and even got teary at the sweet conclusion of the story. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

Sophie Kinsella always knocks it out of the park with the Shopohalic series. Christmas Shopohalic is no exception. I love that she included the easiness of online shopping and how it can really up a Shopohalic’s game. It is an excellent addition to her series!

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This was a really fun book that I will look forward to rereading around the holidays. I have read all of Sophie Kinsella’s books and this one will not disappoint her fans. All of your favorite characters are back along with some great new ones! I have loved following Becky’s life and always find her antics hilarious. This book made me laugh harder than I had reading in a long time. If you have read the other Shopaholic books, you can’t miss Becky taking on the family Christmas for the first time. I can’t wait for the next installment!

I have read and so enjoyed all of Sophie Kinsella’s books. This is the latest in the Shopaholic series. I have enjoyed reading about Becky and following the different stages of her life. Reading about Becky’s life is like visiting an old friend. The Shopaholic series is always timely and smart, and Kinsella’s clever wit always makes me smile. This newest book is wonderful!

I love Sophie's writing so much. This book was cute and funny and just in time for the holidays. I have to read the previous books in this series because this one was so good. I adored it. I'm not one for holiday books but this one was worth it.

Thank you Netgalley, the author and publisher for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Becky Brandon nee Bloomwood is back just in time to be placed in charge of Christmas for the entire extended family. Will she be able to make it magical for all of them or will she succumb to her shopaholic ways. A visit with an old friend just in time for the holidays that will make you laugh, shake your head and be surprised by Becky and her family.

Thank You Netgalley and Random House Publishing Group for the ARC of Christmas Shopaholic. I LOVE LOVE LOVED this book. Becky made me laugh so hard, more than any other book that I can remember. This was actually my first book to read of the Shopaholic series and I went and purchased the eight books prior to this one, it was such a great read!!!

Another great Sophie Kinsella book!! I love all the Becky Brandon (née Bloomwood) books. She always manages to get out of trouble and learn what really matters. I LOVE the "Christmas words" she and Luke exchanged at the end of the book, in the spirit of Jess's non- consumerism. I can't wait for the next in the series!!

Christmas Shopaholic did not disappoint! It captured all the lovliness and fun of the previous Shopaholic books while a the same time bringing some new fun and trouble to the table. Becky gets herself into trouble - but it always comes from a good place in her heart. This new book was especially heartwarming and anyone with a crazy family around the holidays will enjoy!

Although we might not all believe in Santa, we can all relate to the stress of the holidays - especially when you are hosting an event for a large number of opinionated family and friends! Becky is back in this hilarious and heartwarming Christmas tale. While I hadn't read any of the Shopaholic books previously, I had no problem entering Becky's world and getting to know the residents. Numerous conflicts arise surrounding the plans for the holiday, including a pushy businesswoman who wants to work with Becky's husband, a mom-friend from preschool who is getting a divorce and Becky's search for the perfect gift for her husband, Luke. By the end, you'll laugh, rethink your next online purchase, fall a bit in love with Luke and you might even have a new idea for what to get your own family and friends for the holidays. This title will hit the spot when all the work is done during the holidays and you can finally relax. (Advanced copy read courtesy of NetGalley. Opinions are my own.)

Sophie Kinsella offers another lighthearted, feel-good Becky Bloomwood Brandon/Shopaholic book. This one will come out in time for the holidays and would be a great gift for her fans.

Becky is in charge of the family Christmas for the first time ever, and in true Shopaholic fashion, she goes above and beyond to find everyone the perfect gift while at the same time trying to help a dispirited friend, figure out why her sister is unhappy and her parents are barely speaking to their lifelong best friends. An old flame moving to the village complicates things, but as always, Becky muddles through, positively touching the lives of others.

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for letting me read this fabulous ARC in exchange for an honest review.

A long lost family member is back...Becky! This year Becky takes on Christmas. Due to her sister coming back and occupying her parent's home, it's now her duty to host Christmas. What can go wrong? Well it's Becky. So Murphy's law, "Anything that can go wrong will go wrong", is the case. Becky has not change a bit. She's still sweet, crazy and a shopaholic. However, it's even worst during Christmas time. Not only is Becky in search for that perfect presents for everyone, but she also want a perfect Christmas' dinner. Which includes Jess' vegan lifestyle and everyone requests for a side dish. Can that be done?

Of course the story is typical Becky; however, it does get a little redundant. I would like to see more of a twist or some type of changes in Becky. Never the less, she stay very much monotone. It is a nice read and it feels like a long lot sister has come back. At the same time, it's just like any other Shopaholic book, just at a different time of the year with a different predicament.

Becky is back and wittier than ever. I absolutely loved this book. I am so happy Becky is back. Beck offers to hold Christmas and in true Becky fashion she dies what Becky does best, shop. I am crossing my fingers there will be another one, I think there will be.

Sophia Kinsella can do no wrong when it comes to Becky Bloomwood! I've been reading about Becky since I was in college so this was a wonderful turn down memory lane. No suspense or surprises here but a wonderful, heart-warming story that is familiar and comforting in the best way possible!

Another delightful novel an absolute laugh aloud adventure.Becky Bloomwood never fail to entertain make me smile.#netgalley #randomhouse,

In this most recent installment of Shopaholic, we find Becky volunteered by her mother to host Christmas. In only the way Becky can, she goes about planning the big day. This book was charming and playful. Becky made me laugh and cry. All of the favorite characters returned and we met a few new ones. Becky can’t help but jump knee (or waist!) deep into everything she does. For Shopaholic fans, this book is not to be missed.
