While I was pleasantly surprised and amused by the first book in this series, this one leaves me wondering if the next 3 have the same theme - she digs herself deep in debt with obsessive shopping, gets out of it through some miraculous epiphany/deux ex machina (and a touch of hard work/soul searching), and then in the next book it all starts again? I certainly hope not . . .

Nonetheless, her lies during the downward spiral and the awkward situations she gets herself into are always worth a good laugh. And, deep down, Becky Bloomwood is a really nice person, a loyal friend, and a good daughter, so how can you not like her in spite of it all?
