This book is a perfect reflection of what many teenagers struggle today. We are pressured by family, friends, relationships and school. Some choose to go against what they know is right because they want to escape reality. Like Taylor, she tries really hard to have Kat like her. Even if it's only shopping; once you are addicted to something, it's really hard to get out of it.
Very strong and compelling warning to everyone, not just teenagers, to trust their instincts and not just jump into activities that make them uncomfortable. This book captured in a few short pages the dangers of shopping, and how easy it can be to get sucked into the buy today-pay tomorrow mentality.
Definitely a book a lot of people can relate too. Not my all tim favorite, but still a good read. This book is about a girl who can't control her urge to shop. A fast read, but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone but a more younger crowd.
I totally picked this up by accident, confusing it with the Sophie Kinsella book, only to realize 5-6 years later that there were no "confessions" involved. No wonder i disliked this book.
Probably the dumbest book I have ever read...of course I read it on accident when my sister told me to read the Shopaholic book! This was the one that I picked up and read. Fortuntely she actually meant the Sophie Kinsella series of Shopaholic books.
having people that are your long time friends that you really trust and suddenly they act like they have forgotten about you, what will you do? Taylor, sophie and sam had been bff for so long, but lately they had been acting really cold to taylor. they have done thing without her and let her know about things last or the last minute. but that is when she had meet kat, a popular gorgeous girl at school. now she is hanging out with kat, but is she really taylor's friend or is she just a pass time toy for her. taylor had made many mistakes and learn many unnecessary ideas from her.
never give up on your friends even though they have gave up on you, is what i have learned from this book. don't do stupid things that you can never go back and change it.
This book was basically a badly written ripoff of Confessions of a Shopaholic, down to the money-making scheme. I gave it two stars because I'm a sucker for teen fiction, but skip this one if you're looking for any sort of quality.
