It also doesn’t help that I read some of Madeleine Wickham’s standalone novels that were published afterwards and I felt like she just writes the same type of heroine all the time. I just got tired of reading about the same situations all the time and that included the heroine. I tended to gravitate away from the light-hearted, often predictable plot-lines of chick lit and more towards the “darker”, twisty plot lines of young adult fiction and adult romances. Part of the issue is that I grew out of “chick lit”. I revisited the series again when I started university but it was hard for me to get back into them and I couldn’t bring myself to read the last 2 books (Shopaholic to the Stars hadn’t been published yet). They were fun, light-hearted reads that had me chuckling and captured my attention. These were my Meg Cabot days (I think we all have those) and I really loved the fun scenarios of “chick lit” and the dash of romance in them. I was in my mid-teens when I started reading this series and I loved Confessions of a Shopaholic. Find out why I stopped reading the rest of the series below… PLEASE NOTE: That I have only read the first 4 books in the series (up to and including Shopaholic and Sister). Genre: Chick Lit, Contemporary, Humour, Romance, British Lit There is a novella after book 3: Shopaholic on Honeymoon Series Review: Is this series worth your time? Does it get better as the novels progress? Or does it get worse? Find out below:Īuthor: Sophie Kinsella (aka Madeleine Wickham)
