More quotes by Sophie Kinsella

Sophie Kinsella
My childhood was spent embracing one literary heroine after another. I identified passionately with each one and would slavishly imitate them.
Sophie Kinsella
You can want and want and want, but if he doesn't want you back ... you might as well wish the sky were red.

Sophie Kinsella
This is a test, isn't it? It's like choosing out of three caskets in a fairy tale. Everyone knows the rules. You never choose the gold shiny one. Or even the quite impressive silver one. What you're supposed to do is choose the dull little lead one, and then there's a flash of light and it turns into a mountain of jewels
Sophie Kinsella
My life has changed, and I'm changing with it.
Sophie Kinsella
We all fail to appreciate each day just how much we already possess. Light, air, freedom, the companionship of friends.
Sophie Kinsella
Honestly, shopping beats therapy, anytime. It costs the same and you get a dress out of it.
Sophie Kinsella
I've never written a children's book, but when people meet me for the first time and I say I write books, they invariably reply, 'Children's books?' Maybe it's something about my face.
Sophie Kinsella
I had no plans to be a writer. My teenaged bid for stardom was to be a pop star... which, ahem, didn't exactly work out.
Sophie Kinsella
I had fun. That’s what I believe in. Fun, flings, the sizzle. It starts as a shiver, when you see a man for the first time. And then he meets your eye and the shiver runs down your back and becomes a sizzle in your stomach and you think 'I want to dance with that man.' You dance, you have a cocktail or two, you flirt.
Sophie Kinsella

you can always find something you want.
