The Personal Shopper by Carmen Reid

-

I have a treat for fans of Sophie Kinsella today! The Personal Shopper is the story of Annie, a personal shopper at a high end clothing store in London. Clients come to her to spend their monthly clothing allowance or to change up their look. While Annie may have everything in hand with her clients, her personal life is struggling. A single mom who has been on countless blind dates, she is ready to find her perfect match. Thank you to the publisher and Rachel’s Random Resources for allowing me to be part of this blog tour!

If you like light-hearted and funny books, The Personal Shopper is for you. It is the perfect escape book and does not take long to read. I was disappointed when it was done because I wanted to read more about Annie but then I found out this book will be part of a series! Carmen Reid has a knack for creating relatable characters. Annie is hardworking at her store job and her side job of selling clothes on E-Bay. She is who I would want as a personal shopper. She listens to the client and wants to make them feel their best even if it does not make the most sales commission for her. Annie has a few mishaps in the book which leads to several laugh out loud scenes.

What first caught my attention was the cover. The bright red makes you notice it and it is simply a beautiful cover. It embodies the book perfectly and when you pick it up you know you are in for a good read!

Welcome to my stop on The Children’s Book Review in partnership with Catherine Rose for her book, Coloring the Rainbow: The Power of Connection. About the Book: Coloring the Rainbow: The Power of Connection tells a story of the magic created when the unique talents of a diverse group of children are shared in a colorful adventure. The adventure begins when we see through a boy’s window to find a young trombonist pausing his practice to wonder if other musical voices exist. When an alluring treble note wafts through his window, he begins an excited quest to find the answer. Playing his horn through his neighborhood, the boy draws other curious children to play their unique instruments along with him. Together, they played: “Lend your voice, play your part! Something grand is beginning― join us for the start!” The procession of music makers is touched with magic when their combined voices, raised in harmony, orchestrate a colorful miracle. The ease of poetry and vibrant il

Thank you to Rachel’s Random Resources for putting together this virtual book tour! About the Book: For Iris , each visit to her mother in St Mabon’s Cove, Cornwall has been the same – a serene escape from the city. But today, as she breathes in the salt air on the doorstep of her beloved childhood home, a heavy weight of anticipation settles over her. Iris knows she’s adopted, but any questions about where she came from have always been shut down by her parents, who can’t bear to revisit the past. Now, Iris can’t stop thinking about what she’s read on the official paperwork: BABY GIRL, FRANCE, 1939 – the year war was declared with Nazi Germany. When Iris confronts her mother, she hits the same wall of pain and resistance as whenever she mentions the war. That is, until her mother tearfully hands her an old tin of letters, tucked neatly beside a delicate piece of ivory wool. Retreating to the loft, Iris steels herself to at last learn the truth, however painful it might be. Bu

Today I have the first book in a new series to share with you. Lauren Carr's Sam Mackade PI Mystery series starts with The Prime Suspect . Book Description: Two murders with one common denominator.

Four years after Bryce’s cheating husband is gunned down, her boyfriend-stealing former roommate’s remains are found buried under a statue at her alma mater. Declared the prime suspect by both detectives and the media, Bryce has no choice but to hire someone to clear her name. Enter Sam MacKade, private eye. To solve two murders, the former police K-9 officer and his canine partners must sift through the clues and the lies to reveal the true  prime suspect .

The book opens with a cast or character (in order of appearance) that is super handy to reference back to (plus for physical books!) when you are learning the characte
