Beschreibung des Verlags
Becky Brandon, geborene Bloomwood, ist ins beschauliche Letherby gezogen. Weihnachten steht vor der Tür, die Schaufenster funkeln, und die Schnäppchen locken – Becky ist im Glück! Doch dann beauftragt Mama Bloomwood sie plötzlich, das Weihnachtsfest zu organisieren, und vorbei ist es mit der Besinnlichkeit: Jess möchte veganen Truthahn, und das perfekte Geschenk für ihren Mann Luke gibt es nur in einem exklusiven Gentlemen's Club, der Frauen den Zutritt verwehrt. Als auch noch Craig, Beckys alte Flamme und inzwischen cooler Musiker, nach Letherby zieht, ist das Chaos perfekt ...
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Kinsella's popular heroine, Becky Bloomwood Brandon, is back for a delightful ode to shopping, in the engaging eighth Shopaholic novel, this time with a Christmas theme. These days, Becky is in lovely, leafy suburbia and living happily ever after with her husband, Luke, and young daughter, Minnie. When her parents take an apartment in the trendy Shoreditch neighborhood in London, Becky is stuck with planning Christmas festivities for friends and family alike. While running her best friend's gift shop at grand Letherby Hall, Becky encounters an old boyfriend, who's now a musician, and his obnoxious girlfriend, who is determined to go into business with Luke. The villainess of this tale and her devious actions are a teeny bit far-fetched, but Becky is as whimsical and wonderful as ever. With hilarious scrapes only Becky could get into including being locked into a pet store while buying a last-minute hamster for Minnie, integrating an all-male billiards club, and using a permanent Sharpie to mark names of new aftershaves on Luke's skin as he sleeps Kinsella delivers a solid and laugh-out-loud funny installment that longtime readers and new fans alike will gleefully devour.)
