Shopaholic Ties the Knot by Sophie Kinsella

Becky Bloomwood is back and life can’t be any better for the loveable, albeit sometimes clueless shopaholic. She has found her perfect career as a personal shopper at the respectable Barney’s department store, she is living next door to a fashion designer, and her successful, though workaholic, boyfriend has just proposed! Becky cannot wait to be Mrs. Luke Lloyd, and quickly begins planning their nuptials.
Only one snag- her mother is going into wedding overdrive that her only daughter is getting married, and is planning a beautiful ceremony at the house Becky grew up in. But Luke’s high-society mother is insisting on a blow out wedding at the Plaza in New York City. Becky can’t find it in her to let her mother or her soon to be husband down, and finds herself planning two different weddings on two different continents.
Shopaholic Ties the Knot by Sophie Kinsella will not disappoint. You can’t help but laugh at the wacky situations Becky keeps finding herself in- including not being allowed to her own wedding shower- and you just want to peek to the back to find out where exactly she has her wedding. There is plenty of drama to go along with the fun- what is the real story behind Luke’s frosty mother anyways- but I couldn’t help my growing impatience towards the end. With the wedding a mere 14 days away, there is still no decision on where the wedding will take place, and I found myself getting frustrated with the indecision. But in the end, there is a happy ending for everybody, and I think all chick lit lovers will continue to adore the ‘Shopaholic’ series.
