My thoughts
First of all, I felt a little bit disappointed about Becky in debt again. Why can't she just learn a lesson? She just keep buying things and keep extending her budget limit.
Then what is the purpose to set a limit to herself?
However this book is better than the first one. Because the first book mainly focus on Becky's financial problemes but it has more plot about her relationship with other people this time. I love the romance between Luke and Becky. Also, Suze is such a best friends to Becky, always supportive and caring.
At last,This story is so inspiring.When you see how Becky get through all the difficulties and find a job which she truely love. It makes you think about your life again and ask youself if you are doing something you really love. Moreover , it's not easy to confront frustration. But you can learn the courage from Becky.

Summary
Rebecca Bloomwood loves shopping, not just clothing and anything could be her target. But the biggest problem is her income can't affort her expenditure. she went out of control and was in debt. Her life became a mess and she tried to cut back and make more money. But can she control herself and solve the problems?
My thoughts
I have mixed feelings about this book because of the main character- Rebecca Bloomwood. I hate her being annoyed sometimes .However, She is nice and kind.So she is just like a real person, has merits and demerits, doesn't like an imaginary character.
At first, I thought it was just a story about a girl who loves shopping and went out of control.But it is also about grow up, friendships and so on.At the end of the story, it told that run away didn't help with the problem. The only way to solve the problem is to be brave and face it.
In addition, the book is funny. You would laugh when Rebecca has some impracticable thought or having some excuses to shopping .The personality of Rebecca make the story become more interesting.
Finally, I love the writing style. I appreciate that Sophie apply some metaphor and simile on the book. It makes the feelings become more specific. When I was reading, I understood the character's feelings easily.
