To Las Vegas . . . and beyond!

Becky Brandon (nee Bloomwood) is on a major rescue mission! Hollywood was full of surprises, and now she's on a road trip to Las Vegas to help her friends and family.

She's determined to get to the bottom of why her dad has mysteriously disappeared, help her best friend Suze and even bond with long-time enemy Alicia Bitch Long-legs (maybe...).


As Becky discovers just how much her friends and family need help, she comes up with her biggest, boldest, most brilliant plan yet! So can she save the day just when they need her most?

About the author:
Aside from the "Shopaholic" series (which starts with Confessions of a Shopaholic), Sophie Kinsella has also written six standalone novels which have all been bestsellers in the UK, USA and other countries around the world. Some of these are The Undomestic Goddess, Twenties Girl, and Wedding Night.

Sophie wrote her first novel under her real name, Madeleine Wickham, at the tender age of 24, whilst she was working as a financial journalist. The Tennis Party (40 Love) was immediately hailed as a success by critics and the public alike and became a top ten bestseller. Some other novels she has written as Madeleine Wickham include A Desirable Residence, The Wedding Girl, and Cocktails for Three.

She submitted her first ‘Sophie Kinsella’ novel anonymously to her existing publishers and it was snapped up without her editors knowing that she was already one of their authors. It wasn’t until the appropriately titled Can You Keep a Secret? was published that Sophie revealed her true identity for the first time.

Sophie was born in London. She studied music at New College, Oxford, but after a year switched to Politics, Philosophy and Economics. She now lives in London, UK, with her husband and family. Visit Sophie at her website, Facebook, and Twitter.

My favorite Las Vegas movie would be Leaving Las Vegas with Nicolas Cage. I used to love the tv show Las Vegas too. I was upset when it got canceled.

Fools Rush In from 1997. It was so cute!!!

I loved Fools Rush In as well ... I'll admit though, Vegas Vacation rocked!

Definitely "The One in Vegas" (parts 1 and 2!) from Friends! Monica and Chandler almost get married, Ross and Rachel do get married, and Joey finds his hand twin - what more could you want?

I LOVE the Friends episode in Vegas. Ross has a drawing stuck on his face. HA.

Oh, and I love The Hangover. "There's a jungle cat in the bathroom!"

The original CSI! I'm going to miss it!

I really liked CSI (the original one). I've watched it from the beginning. None of the others quite measured up. Too bad it's done.

I'm not a fan of anything Las Vegas, so the only thing that comes to mind is the movie Leaving Las Vegas with Nicholas Cage, which was sooooo depressing.
