Shoe Addicts Anonymous
7 journalers for this copy...
In this entertaining novel set in Washington, D.C., three very different women are brought together by a shared passion: shoes. They meet once a week to trade Manolos and Maglis, but soon they rely on each other for much more. Lorna, a debt-ridden waitress, founded the group to curb her destructive shopping sprees. Helene, a senator's trophy wife, attends to escape her loveless marriage and the banality of high-society life. Sandra, an overweight phone-sex operator, hopes the group can help cure her agoraphobia. They're joined by Joss, a young nanny, who doesn't care about shoes but needs a place to avoid her demanding boss. The four women become fast friends, trusted advisors, and eventually business partners.

While there is lots of talk of shoes (never quite understood the fascination myself) - this book turned out to be quite entertaining.

Hmm! I don't know how you could get yourself in financial difficulties like Lorna & not notice - particularly over shoes. Now, books are another kettle of fish altogether! Lorna's silliness over her debt & Joss' putting up with what was dished out to her in her nannying job, irritated me me, but overall I found the story entertaining & easy to read. If they came with a delicious-sounding man like Phillipe Carfagni, I guess I could get used to having the perfect shoes.

This is exactly what I felt like. A light, attractive little book that didn't require deep concentration. I most definitely understand the attraction of shoes - the game changer for an outfit. Unfortunately its not a kind of book im going to remember in a month ha. This will travelling again very soon. Thanks catsalive for sending this to me. (:

I found this book very very irritating and found this book very heavy going. I found the plot very silly and the characters very childish and highly irresponsible I don't think I will be reading more from this author.
I hope the next reader enjoys it more that I do
