Becky and Luke are engaged and planning a wedding!  Er, make that two weddings.  Becky's mother jumps right in and starts planning a wedding in England and meanwhile Luke's mother has hired the best wedding planner in Manhattan to plan a wedding at the Plaza.  Both weddings are on the same day and as that day gets closer, Becky can't bring herself to cancel either one, so she just goes along hoping things will "work out."

I loved the first two Shopaholic novels, but by the end of this one I was groaning.  Becky was really grating on my nerves; I wanted to smack her around and tell her to grow up.  I didn't care for the ending, either.  How is it that Becky never has to have any accountability for her actions?

I couldn't decide whether or not to give this one two or three stars.  In the end, I gave it three because I enjoyed the beginning of the novel and I still like the way Kinsella writes.
