3: Confessions of a Shopaholic by Sophie Kinsella

Sarah, Johnna, Clara & Sabrina rip apart this week's NYT bestseller: Confessions of a Shopaholic. Published in 2000, this book has sold three million copies and been translated into 30 languages. In 2009 it was made into a movie starring Isla Fisher. We dive in and attempt to figure out **why**.
