Has anyone read this new one ( sophia kinsella is her other name)? I saw it at target today! |
|||
|

I geuss it came out in July..how I didnt see it is beyond me LOL |
|||

So Madeline Weckham and Sophia Kinsella are the same person? I didn't know that. Thanks for the info. |

Are you talking about The Gate Crashers? Or does she have a newer one?!?! I have it wishlisted and I'm pretty close to being No. 1! I can't wait to read it. She's got an earlier one as well ... Cocktails for Three. |

Yes it was gate chrashers! I had cocktails for 3..I see there are several other books under this name....tennis party, wedding girl, swimming pool sunday...has anyone read any of these? |

I have a couple of hers that I got after I found out they were the same person but haven't read them yet. I'm interested to see the difference if any in writing styles. |

It's actually not a new book. It was written in 2000. It was re-released in 2007. I read Cocktails for Three and I did not like it as much as the books she has written under the name Sophie Kinsella. I don't know why it would make a difference - it's the same person writing them. |

I totally agree Kristin, same author yet her books under Madeline bore me to tears, and I can't get enough of Sophie K's books.

Interesting. I have the exact opposite opinion -- I love the Madeline Wickham books and have a hard time with the Sophie Kinsella books. I read Cocktails for Three and just loved it. I could really identify with several of the characters, and I have a really hard time identifying with the Shopaholic character. When I learned that MW and SK were the same person, I was really surprised. I immediately added all of MW books to my wish list. |

I'm reading Cocktails for Three right now...by Madeleine Wickham (Sophie Kinsella). It's surprisingly good. It's a hard bound copy. I'll post it when I'm finished. |

I'm a huge fan of Sophie Kinsella and have been wondering if I would like the Madeleine Wickham books. They seem like they are much more serious books. Is that right? |
