LOVED IT LOVED IT LOVED IT! - By: Miss A Crowder, 09 Sep 2008 
A brilliant book! Highly recommended! You'll laugh, you'll cry & you will absolutely identify with the main character, Emma, on her journeyin this book. One of my all time favourites, couldn't put it down!
A wonderful feelgood story - By: Carrie Sue' Bradshaw, 02 Sep 2008 I've read all Sophie's shopaholic books, & I'm happy to report this is just as good. As usual with her books, it has it's share of laugh out loud moments, & my only complaint about it, is that it's too short, I didn't want it to end. This is chick lit romantic comedy at it's best.
what can i say?? - By: bear, 31 Aug 2008 what can i say?? BEST. BOOK. EVER!!
i picked it up. i read it. i loved it!!!
im 15 years old & i read this when i was 14. personally, i am not a huge fan of romantic novels but one day when i was bored & need a book to read for english i picked this one up simply because it looked nice. it is a good book because it is great for the teenage gap: it has a good balance of romance & comedy without being to over the top ans is generally just an enjoyable read. sophie kinsella's style of writing is light & easy to understand so makes this book a great choice for anyone who is looking to be entertained without having to takein too much.
I can't believe the overall rating for this book! - By: Corinna Venturi, 13 Jun 2008 
I have always been a lover of chick lit, Marian Keyes, Jane Green, love 'em all for a bit of light reading. So I've been eyeing the Sophie Kinsella books for a while & finally picked up 'Can You Keep a Secret?'...oh dear. Unfortunately I cannot keep the secret of how much I hated this book! Sadly I am the sort of person who cannot leave a book once I've started it & so I stayed until the bitter end.
I have never written a negative review (I would simply stay silent) so I'm very sorry Ms Kinsella. However, I have had to suffer an entire book where the plotline is so painfully obvious & the heroine was such an utter moron that if I were to meet someone like that I would shake her by the shoulders & tell her to stop being such an idiotic wimp! As the reader, I am generally meant to feel some sort of sympathy or empathy with the main characterin these types of book, not soin this case. Emma Corrigan is an imbecile & the type of 'friend' one would tend to avoid at all costs. Nothing the character does is remotely realistic & the only reason I give this book 1 star is because if Emma can end up with a rich successful boyfriend AND a promotion, then there is hope for us all! Although I really think this is stretching the meaning of 'fiction' to it's outer limits, maybe it should be reclassified under 'fantasy'.
Usually I share my books with my friends & family or give them to the charity shop when I've finished with them. This time I simply left it on the bus & walked away. Now I'm off to pick up some Aldous Huxleyin attempt to get some of those brain cells back...
Just Brilliant - By: Ms. J. Campbell, 08 Jun 2008 This book is fantastic, I read itin a day I just couldn't put it down, it's really touching & movingin parts. I think Sophie Kinsella is a fantasic author, one of my favorites, Im not one for reading but I ordered her whole collection & i'm getting though them pretty quick.....
