Alhamdulillah,
it’s the end of March already! Can’t really relate how fast time flies nowadays. I am
still unemployed. Ya Allah, please
give me rezeki in finding job (and a
good husband heehee). Oh and I'll be off to Kuala Lumpur soon! (Okay, what should I pray on the plane? What? Doa musafir makbul okay!)
Anyways, February was awesome. I remember that the Fam organized a birthday gathering for
my Grandpop and few others, went for a road trip to KB with my Aussie-mates, went to get nasi katok at midnight with my sister
and did watching “Kingsman: The Secret Service” counts? DEFINITELY YES! (Taron
Egerton and Colin Firth <3)
I just finished reading the latest Shopaholic Series:
Shopaholic to the Stars. It took me about three months to finish it and I don’t
expect it took that long to end this book! Like whaaattt, it usually took me on average 4 days or a week at most to
finish a book! Plus, it’s the Shopaholic Series! I started to wonder why.
Okay, probably because of:
- I am tired of the chaos made by Becky.
- It’s exhausting to read about her dramas. Like why can’t you just lead a normal life? Can you just shut your thoughts and actually listen to others? (But then I think it’s ridiculous because this book is about Becky)
- I am just tired of Becky.
- And Probably those Hollywood artists too.
- And what’s up with her dad really!
Don’t get me wrong. I love Becky. However this latest book is
just so tiring. With all her drama and stuff. It’s all about her! Yeah, yeah,
she’s the shopaholic one here and this book is supposed to focus on her but as
I said, it’s tiring when she just do what she think is right without consulting
with others, especially her husband, Luke. Poor chap.
I know its not like Becky is a real life person that she has
to lead a normal life. Obviously, she is a fiction and she is free to do what
she wants. I lose interest in reading the early chapters but the pace goes back
up at about chapter 16. But I think I’ve read too much action/thriller novels
before reading this book. Where these novels’ are different in pace as they can
even have a climax at the start. (Refer Maze Runner, Chapter 1). They keep us
thinking in each and every chapter, from the start to finish. Though some does
not have a great ending.
However, I can’t believe I am saying this (after all the
dislikes that I had on this book), I can’t wait for the next series to come
out. Oh please, I am not the only one who’s dying (not literally) to know what’s up with
Becky’s Dad! And the only thing that stuck on my mind after reading the book is
“We are all called Rebecca” and why is that? That girl should’ve just said
something! Sheesh! (Refer Chapter 21, pages 359-360, according to the edition
shown below).

On an extra note, Sophie did a free short story for her
Shopaholic fans! Did you ever wonder how Becky and Luke’s honeymoon would be
like? If you feel like reading their honeymoon story, head on to the link below
