  <default_description>With the same wicked humor, buoyant charm, and optimism that have made her Shopaholic novels beloved international bestsellers, Sophie Kinsella delivers a hilarious new novel and an unforgettable new character.  Meet Emma Corrigan, a young woman with a huge heart, an irrepressible spirit, and a few little secrets:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Secrets from her mother:&lt;br&gt;I lost my virginity in the spare bedroom with Danny Nussbaum while Mum and Dad were downstairs watching Ben-Hur.&lt;br&gt;Sammy the goldfish in my parents&amp;#8217; kitchen is not the same goldfish that Mum gave me to look after when she and Dad were in Egypt.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Secrets from her boyfriend:&lt;br&gt;I weigh one hundred and twenty-eight pounds.  Not one eighteen, like Connor thinks.&lt;br&gt;I&amp;#8217;ve always thought Connor looks a bit like Ken.  As in Barbie and Ken.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;From her colleagues:&lt;br&gt;When Artemis really annoys me, I feed her plant orange juice.  (Which is pretty much every day.) It was me who jammed the copier that time.  In fact, all the times.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Secrets she wouldn&amp;#8217;t share with anyone in the world:&lt;br&gt;My G-string is hurting me.&lt;br&gt;I have no idea what NATO stands for.  Or even what it is.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Until she spills them all to a handsome stranger on a plane.  At least, she thought he was a stranger.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;But come Monday morning, Emma&amp;#8217;s office is abuzz about the arrival of Jack Harper, the company&amp;#8217;s elusive CEO. Suddenly Emma is face-to-face with the stranger from &lt;br&gt;the plane, a man who knows every single humiliating detail about her.  Things couldn&amp;#8217;t possibly get worse&amp;#8212;Until they do.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;i&gt;From the Hardcover edition.&lt;/i&gt;</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[I'm too old for Sophie Kinsella. While I enjoy chick lit -- and have definitely read my share of fluff -- Kinsella crosses the line here, just a bit. I'm tired -- nay, EXHAUSTED -- of supposedly smart heroines who are too stupid to realize they're smart, so they continue to act stupid, and I'm even ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/30082187">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Firstly, the cover design of this book does not LET you keep a secret of the fact that you are reading chick lit. From the bright pink cover to the giant font of the title: Everyone on the train with me could clearly see my dirty little secret-- I was reading chick lit! <br/><br/>Taking it for wha...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/1725801">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I love Sophie Kinsella’s books, for the most part, so it should come as no surprise that I would pick up Can You Keep A Secret?. I purchased this book a couple of years ago when I was in Paris because I wasn’t adjusted to the time change and needed something to do in the wee hours of the night.<br/>...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/38397183">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[There were two things that attracted me to reading this novel. First, I had become a fan of Sophie Kinsella due her Shopaholic novels (although I wasn’t particularly keen on the Shopaholic ties the Knot). And second, I was very curious to see how the author would deliver another novel without a Be...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/69228436">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This book to me is classic chick-lit: blustering yet optimistic protagonist, a cast of crazy characters (the obligatory quirky best friend, mean co-workers, average girl/normal life, and the perfect guy as the love interest), set in a mildly unrealistic situation. <br/><br/>I've read all of Kinsel...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/64713063">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I will admit that the book was funny at times. However, I could never really get over how unrealistic it was to be able enjoy it. I know it's chick-lit and that some lack of realism is expected, but this was too much for me. I enjoyed The Undomestic Goddess and Remember Me? much more than this one. ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/61995910">more...</a>]]></body>
