Just in time for the holiday shopping season I stumbled upon the "Shopaholic" book series by Sophie Kinsella. This series which is about Becky Bloomwood takes place first in Oxshott, England and then in New York City. Becky struggles with financial woes of many sorts, all while working for a financial advice magazine. Once she moves to New York Becky gets a job working as a Shopping Assistant for Barney's department store. These books are full of laughs while still dealing with real life money woes. I still have two books to go to be caught up in the series, and can't wait for them to arrive.
So is everyone out there ready for Christmas? I've still got a few presents yet to buy. As you all can guess I think books make wonderful gifts! I've already purchased a board book for my baby nephew's first Christmas. Granted he'll probably just chew on it, but hey in years to come he'll learn to enjoy books.
Well I hope that you all out there in Library Land have a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
