Can You Keep a Secret? [UNABRIDGED] [AUDIOBOOK] (Audio Cassette)

~ Sophie Kinsella (Author), Kate Reading (Narrator)

Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Fans of Kinsella's dauntless Shopaholic series will leap at the chance to listen to Emma Corrigan's secrets in this engaging romance. The best moments are truly great. The plot is uproariously funny when the secrets are spilled and the snappy dialogue gets going. Thanks in part to Kate Reading's performance, the listener can't help but identify with Emma, who craves success in spite of her shortcomings. Occasionally the story's internal musings go on too long, but, for the most part, this is a sweet novel with a crisp delivery from Reading, a master of accents and emotion. L.B.F. (c) AudioFile 2004

4.0 out of 5 stars Uproarious, Engaging and Real!, January 1, 2007

By	Julia Watt "Must Read 24/7" (Chicago) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Emma is all of us at one time or another in our lives. One moment she is spouting everything on her mind and the the next, she is speechless at the very moment she should say something. Haven't we all felt that way? I laughed until I cried and cried until I laughed all through this uproariously funny and engaging tale. Sophie Kinsella meets us all in the heart with Emma.

5.0 out of 5 stars Kinsella Has the Gift of Humor, January 15, 2006

By	Virginia Allain "(retired librarian)" (Poinciana, FL) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)

Emma has no idea why her actions backfire so frequently. Think of Clueless, cross that with Bridget Jones and you have a hint of what a fun movie this would make. I'm picturing Hugh Grant playing Jack, the tycoon.
It's fun, as the reader can't wait to see what comes out of Emma's mouth next. The girl has a knack for bumbling through life, yet you can't help cheering for her to overcome it all.
Update: I just found on the internet that this will become a movie, with Erin Cressida Wilson to adapt the book into a screenplay for Kate Hudson to star in.
