Funny and insightful! A definite must-have!
Amanda Ford has written a very interesting and enjoyable book. There are many stories that will make you laugh out loud, but there is more to it than just humour. Reading it made me evaluate my own shopping habits. Buy this book, you won't regret it!!!

This book is really touching!!!
I have to admit recently I become a so-called shopaholic. When I feel bad, bored or sad, I will just go out and buy something. I found this book in my local book shop and it just makes me feel lucky that I decide to pick it up. The book bring in something that touch me inside and that I do have experienced on everyday basis. it does make me feel like it is a kind of therapy. I read a lot of self-help book and subscribe to load of magazines. This book is just the best I've found. The writer makes her point through the simplest thing that everyone'd have shared in daily life. It is not only about shopping but also look back in other parts of life. It is NOT as boring as the usual self-help that will just point out something and then you wonder "So? That is not my life! and I don't really know anyone that live like that" or just tell you what you "should do to make you feel better". Something might be only a single moment that you feel but simply skip through it. This book points it out beautifully. Its simplest words just touch on things that you did and point out and let you think more out of it. If you love to shop (even window shopping), you will love this book.

great gift book!
I gave this book to my two daughters who are in their twenties. they could relate to it because the message is so honest and they've experienced the same conflicts. The story of the jean jacket is universal. The book's design is fun and lively which makes reading it fun too. Similar Products
