As a geek girl that attempts to be somewhat fashionable, even if I don’t always succeed, I tend to relate to the main character of the Shopaholic books by Sophie Kinsella. I’ve read almost all the books in the series so far and was excited to hear about the movie coming out, until I saw the trailer while waiting for Bride Wars to start. From what is shown, it seems they’re ripping the first two books apart and creating a movie that might be considered inspired from the books, but doesn’t really follow the story at all. It really shouldn’t bother me, since movies always tend to tear apart the books they’re “based” on, but the character of Rebecca Bloomwood just seems like one they should be true to. I’ll probably end up seeing the movie and dreading every moment.

Yeah, I know, not game or programming related, but see, I have other interests.
