Product Information

That is, until Luke announces he’s moving to New York for business—and he asks Becky to go with him! Even though she is the master of a wrong decision, her point of view can trigger the reader to keep reading. I loved your review (and the gifs were so funny) and I’m putting it on my Kindle right now so if this becomes my latest obsession I’m blaming you! It is another substantial factor that contributes to the majority of the novel, with Suze, her best friend who supports her as much as possible even though Becky has a lot of problems. The Guy seems intelligent and rational, so why he would hitch himself to a financial disaster in Prada heels is beyond me.

The first is a plot that is inconsistent in describing the situation in a narrative that is too long, and sometimes the explanation is too short. But when the must-have celebrity obstetrician Becky’s been so desperate to see turns out to be Luke’s glamorous, intellectual ex-girlfriend, Becky’s perfect world starts to crumble. All I can tell you is that unless you, yourself, are ignorant, incredibly stupid, deceitful, materialistic, dishonest, and rude.The thing is, for me, the story went about for too long before I managed to see anything other than the bling-bling obsessed Rebecca. I learned how to copy out a press release and nod at press conferences and ask questions that sounded as though I knew what I was talking about. If there is a male equivalent to women’s mindless and completely uncool pursuit of name-brand (read: expensive) fashion, it would be a dude with a mullet peeling out in a Trans Am in the parking lot of a strip club blaring a Ted Nugent anthem. She stuffs things into trucks, she keeps the letters in a drawer she never opens, anything to avoid the fact that she's got bills to pay. The ever so lovely Suze, Beckys flat mate and best friend, her extremely loving parents who seem to believe excuse after excuse that Becky comes up with and even the ever so handsome Mr Luke Brandon.

The Tennis Party was immediately hailed as a success by critics and the public alike and became a top ten bestseller. I think that if Rebecca had grown into a miraculously responsible woman, totally transformed, changing her expending ways into frugality, I would have been bored.

Deep spirals of debt don't touch her very real compulsion because of the avoidance and rationalizations that come so easily to her. It’s impossible not to fall in love with Becky and her antics, and this latest offering doesn’t disappoint. I think that a heroin addiction is less damaging to young women, and it's certainly more interesting to read about. chock-full of the charming antics and asides that made the first two installments hilarious best-sellers. It's a very touchy issue, but the author explores the mentality of a woman trapped by the glitter and glam of a highly materialistic society very well.

You can rely on the fate and good-fortune of womanly endowments to make all the trivial problems in your little, frivolous bubble of world disappear. Her job writing at Successful Saving magazine not only bores her to tears, it doesn’t pay much at all. Determined to get to the bottom of why her dad has disappeared, help Suze, contain the dreaded Alicia, and reunite her fractured family, Becky knows that she must marshal all her trademark ingenuity. I'd been hoping that life would smack some more sense into this silly airhead, not reinforce her bad habits.I would imagine that there are lots of women who feel that their purchases somehow make them unique.
