So I buy it. The most perfect little cardigan in the world. People will call me the Girl in the Gray Cardigan. I’ll be able to live in it. Really, it’s an investment.

You're so narrow-minded! You live in the same village you grew up in, you run the family business, you're buying a nursery down the road... you're practically still in the womb. So before you lecture me on the way to live my life, try living one of your own, OK?
Sophie Kinsella
You can't just switch off your feelings because the other person did.

I'm sitting at the dinner table, wearing my future mother-in-law's underwear. It's like some twisted dream that you wake up and thinkL Crikey Moses! Thank God that didn't really happen!
Sophie Kinsella
This is what's so annoying about going out with Luke. You can't get away with anything.
Sophie Kinsella
Jeez Louise. I know why rich people are so thin: it's from trekking around their humongous houses the whole time.
Sophie Kinsella
We're playing Scrabble. It's a nightmare. Scrabble? He sounds surprised. Scrabble's great. Not when you're playing with a family of geniuses, it's not. They all put words like 'iridiums'. And I put 'pig'.
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
If you want something you can't afford, think what else that money could buy: a week's groceries, a month's rent, or a weekend away. That will put things into perspective.
Sophie Kinsella
I'm an impulse buyer. I don't really go out with a list.
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.
