Becky has since featured in seven further bestselling books, Shopaholic Abroad (also published as Shopaholic Takes Manhattan), Shopaholic Ties the Knot, Shopaholic & Sister, Shopaholic & Baby, Mini Shopaholic, Shopaholic to the Stars and Shopaholic to the Rescue. The book’s heroine, Becky Bloomwood – a fun and feisty financial journalist who loves shopping but is hopeless with money – captured the hearts of readers worldwide. Sophie Kinsella first hit the UK bestseller lists in September 2000 with her first novel in the Shopaholic series – The Secret Dreamworld of a Shopaholic (also published as Confessions of a Shopaholic). Sophie Kinsella has sold over 40 million copies of her books in more than 60 countries, and she has been translated into over 40 languages.

Now she returns with all of the wit, warmth, and wisdom that are the hallmarks of her bestsellers to spin this fresh, modern story about presenting the perfect life when the reality is far from the truth. Sophie Kinsella is celebrated for her vibrant, relatable characters and her great storytelling gifts. Secrets are spilled and relationships rejiggered, and as the stakes for Katie's future get higher, she must question her own assumptions about what makes for a truly meaningful life. London has never seemed so far away-until Demeter unexpectedly turns up as a guest. Shattered but determined to stay positive, Katie retreats to her family's farm in Somerset to help them set up a vacation business. Then, just as she's finding her feet-not to mention a possible new romance-the worst happens. No wonder Katie takes refuge in not-quite-true Instagram posts, especially as she's desperate to make her dad proud. Katie's life, meanwhile, is a daily struggle-from her dismal rental to her oddball flatmates to the tense office politics she's trying to negotiate.

Demeter is brilliant and creative, lives with her perfect family in a posh townhouse, and wears the coolest clothes. New York Times bestselling author Sophie Kinsella has written her most timely novel yet.Įverywhere Katie Brenner looks, someone else is living the life she longs for, particularly her boss, Demeter Farlowe. NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - Part love story, part workplace drama, this sharply observed novel is a witty critique of the false judgments we make in a social-media-obsessed world.
