Summary from Sainsbury's Entertainment On Demand who provided me with the book
To Las Vegas . . . and beyond!
Becky Brandon (née
Bloomwood) is on a major rescue mission! Hollywood was full of
surprises, and now she's on a road trip to Las Vegas to help her friends
and family.
She's determined to get to the bottom of why her dad
has mysteriously disappeared, help her best friend Suze and even bond
with Alicia Bitch Long-legs (maybe...).
As Becky discovers just
how much her friends and family need help, she comes up with her
biggest, boldest, most brilliant plan yet! So can she save the day just
when they need her most?
Nayu's thoughts
More insanity ensues as family situation gets a bit out of
control) Crazy is a major understatement for the entire Shopahholic
series, and this book is no exception. The infinitely melodramatic Becky
heads on a hunt for her father, which leads to lots of her trademark
illogical decisions which seem fine at the time to her, but with hindsight
and from other perspectives are on the loopy side. It forever amuses me that she has a daughter,
but she does her best for all those who she loves.
The situations seem too crazy to be true,
and yet they are, plus naturally shopping comes into play, I really like the
various emails Becky sends and receives because they are hilarious. Becky learns an awful lot about her family and herself on
this trip, finding out who she really is and what role certain people
have played in making her who she is. It's a read that leads to self
evaluation, and lots of smiles! Great for when you need cheering up, and definitely going on my reread shelf.
