The fourth book in Carmen Reid‘s Shopper series featuring Annie Valentine, Celebrity Shopper, is due out on 4th March 2010. Now the synopsis is full of spoilers for those who haven’t read the other books in the series so I’m going to put it underneath a cut.

Now, the first cover I had for Celebrity Shopper was the one on the right (the purple one) but Amazon have this lovely blue one up for the Hardcover release. I think I prefer the blue one… what about you?

I got a newsletter today from Adele Parks which mentioned you can bid for a chance to appear in Adele’s next novel! I duly clicked on the link to see what the whole thing was about and I felt I needed to mention it. It’s a charity auction held by the Financial Times and Quintessentially in aid of Room To Read and you can bid on items, on EBay, to help raise money for the charity.

Some of the things you can bid for include: Having your name immortalised in print by Adele Parks, Kate Long, Jill Mansell, Jane Fallon, Sue Mongredien (Lucy Diamond), Lisa Jewell, Katie Fforde and Mike Gayle. There are lots of other bids so head on over to Quintessentially to see them all!

The auction is open until November 30th so get clicking.
