Shoe Addicts Anonymous by Beth Harbison (2008, Paperback, Reprint)

I read a first printing from the library and there were some pretty simple typos/errors that were distracting.

Aside from that, it's a good read. It moves fast and the characters are interesting and very likable.

Helene is a mysterious, beautiful senator's wife. The senator is well, a typical, adulterous, egotistical senator and the reader doesn't get a real grip on why Helene is with him.

Lorna is probably my favorite. She is in debt thanks to her love of all things shoes.

Sandra is interesting. She's agoraphobic and a sex-phone operator who has a crush on her childhood friend.

Lastly, Joss is in a foul position as a nanny to Deena Oliver, rich lady from hell. You just know there's more to Deena that meets the eye but once again, unfortunately, it doesn't delve deep enough.

Pros: great dialogue, believable, cute, cute story.

Cons: someone please edit this book! Characters are just on the cusp of being well developed but not quite enough.

Read it if you like chick lit and/or shoes. You'll like it.
