Yes, you're right. It is called Q & A by Vikas Swarup. That is the book that I'm currently reading. For some reason I keep calling it 10 Questions........maybe I'm getting it confused by some other title.

I've started reading Shopaholic Abroad by Sophie Kinsella.

It's the 2nd part of the Shopaholic Series.

The movie was made too-airheady when the book really isnt. As for a second part to the Devil Wears Prada--I dont think there is one.

Oh it might not be a second part.

It's from the same author, Lauren Weisberger and it's called Chasing Harry Winston.

Nothing.

That's not the name of a book(-: I haven't read a decent book/or even an indecent one in ages.
