In Mini Shopaholic, Becky must learn to manage her strong-willed child, and at the same time plan a surprise birthday bash for her husband, Luke, while the Bank of London deals with a financial crisis that prompts people to tighten their purse strings. When Minnie sees something she wants, she grabs it with her arms and/or legs and hangs on for dear life, which is pretty funny when it’s a store mannequin. Sophie Kinsella’s Shopaholic series is back, and this time Becky Bloomwood Brandon has a two-year-old daughter, Minnie, who takes after her. I won’t explain that “unique” means “we hide the clothes in computer-paper boxes.” Luke doesn’t need to hear every tedious little detail of my job, does he? “If you really want to know, ” I say haughtily, “we at The Look have a unique approach to fashion selling, which is seeing us through the difficult times.” Number two, if I was doing that, then why would I be standing here in a skirt which I bought five years ago from Barneys? Number one, I made a promise, which I am keeping.
“Becky, please tell me you’re not selling them all to yourself.” Every other sector is dead, but you’re still managing to sell expensive designer clothes…” His face suddenly blanches.
