Lover? I don't know. I don't know if she loves me. I don't know if I love her. All I can say is, she's the one I think about. All the time. She's the voice I want to hear. She's the face I hope to see.

Sophie Kinsella
I don't speak Japanese, I don't know anything about Japanese business or Japanese culture. Apart from sushi. But I can't exactly go up to him and say Sushi! out of the blue. It would be like going up to a top American businessman and saying, T-bone steak!
Sophie Kinsella
Women need chocolate. It's a scientific fact.
Sophie Kinsella
Everyone keeps saying I’ll pick it up. But what if I don’t? I did algebra for three years, and I never picked that up.
Sophie Kinsella
I need good coffee! I say in horror. It's my only luxury! I can't live with my parents and drink bad coffee. It's not humanly possible. Becky talking about cutting back with her parents.
Sophie Kinsella
I'm an impulse buyer. I don't really go out with a list.
Sophie Kinsella
I’m blushing at my own stupid, nonsensical, meaningless thought process, which, by the way, nobody knows about except me.
Sophie Kinsella
Hi. Hi. I shrug, as though to say Whatever. In my peripheral vision I can see Magnus exhale. He looks a teeny bit nervous. So. So. I can play this game too. Poppy. Poppy. I mean, Magnus. I scowl. He caught me out.
Sophie Kinsella
