Shoe Addicts Anonymous

De: Beth Harbison

Narrado por: Orlagh Cassidy

Four different women. One common shoe size. And a shared lust for fabulous footwear. In this sparkling novel, the wife of a controlling politician, a debt-ridden eBay addict, an agoraphobic phone sex operator, and a nanny for the family from hell (who barely knows a sole from a heel but who will do anything to get out of the house) meet Tuesday nights to trade shoes, and, in the process, form friendships that will help them each triumph over their problems—from secret pasts to blackmail, bankruptcy, and dating. Funny, emotional, and powerful, Shoe Addicts Anonymous is the perfect summer listen.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“I would happily recommend Shoe Addicts Anonymous to anyone who loves shoes...or smart, funny, realistic women enjoying each other's friendship and the happiest of happy endings.” —Jennifer Weiner, author of The Guy Not Taken

“I was hooked from the first page and read it in one sitting--I couldn't put it down...a pleasure from start to finish.” —Marian Keyes, bestselling author of Anybody Out There?

“More fun than a pair of Manolos, more exciting than some Prada platforms!” —Molly Jong-Fast, author of Girl, Maladjusted

Starts off slow but picks up

Interesting with a Predictable plot. Slow to start off. A little sanctimonious at times but overall an easy beach read.

Nice, Enjoyable!

It's an easy listen, four women and their shoe addiction. Believeble enough. The stories come together nicely and interestingly at first and problems are fixed with a nice tidy bow at the end. The narrator is fantastic. She's the reason I chose the book. Will read more from this author just for the narrator!

was okay

This book follows the lives of different women being lovers of trendy shoes that meet up weekly to discuss their lives and of course shoes! I thought the book would be more fun and engrossing than it was, it was an okay read, but certainly not a book that you are not wanting to put down. The book is very slow and you don't really feel or care for any of the characters.

fun fun

If you like the Shopaholic series you will love this. Fun listen, can't wait to continue on.

Chic Lit with character development

I enjoyed this book because the characters are not outrageous stereotypes. These women are more like you and me than is the norm in Chic Lit. The characters change and grow throughout the book and they do not depend (too much) on men rescuing them from their troubles. I loved getting to know these women and cheered for them when they changed their lives for the better. I also love shoes, which predisposed me to like this novel. This book is slower paced than you might be used to for this genre, but give these characters a chance and they will win you over with their regular gal charms.
