Behaving Like Adults: A Novel 34 reviews Anna Maxted
Avon A, 2004
Great Chick Lit.
+ i loved the end + Another great novel from Anna Maxted.
I've read several books by Anna Maxted and enjoyed them all but this book topped my list. As with all romance novels there are twists, misunderstandings, feuds, and silly characters that eventually all get together for a happy ending. Unlike other modern romances (that sometimes are so filled with ...

The Devil Wears Prada 1025 reviews Lauren Weisberger
Harper, 2006
Great Read
+ A must have. + Uneven
I just loved this book! I thought that the writing was brilliant. Towards the end though it did get repetitive about just how bad her boss was. I wanted to say, "Okay, I get it already!" It was a bit much. But all in all, I really enjoyed it and would highly recommend it.

Swapping Lives 81 reviews Jane Green
Viking Adult, 2006
Definitely Fun!
I usually give chick lits a three-star for various reasons; they're easy to read and it doesn't take much mental energy to read them; they're predictable; they're usually the same, where woman meets boy, falls in lust and gets her heart broken or captures her prince; it's always about single women. ...

I just finished this book and loved it. It was so good I couldn't put it down and than ordered it for my girlfriend. Great chick-lit read. A mix between Bridgette Jones and Sex in the City.

Slightly Engaged (Red Dress Ink) 15 reviews Wendy Markham
Red Dress Ink, 2006
book review
I was so disappointed! I LOVE Tracy in her past two books but this one seemed to try too hard. It got corny, repetitious, and a bit over the top humor. I felt Tracy would go on FOREVER with her thoughts and the book just seemed to drag.

+ Pretty good + An interesting look into one woman's journey to self
Jane Green is one of my favorites, and this book was just wonderful. I've read it many times (I always re read my books, sort of akin to visiting with old friends)
Anyway, the thing that I most loved about this book was Jane Green's descriptive genius. She paints such a gorgeous picture of the ...

I took this book with me on a 4 day trip to Florida last summer - it was the perfect book to sit and read in or by the pool. I absolutely loved it. I would recommend it to anyone looking for an easy, light-hearted summer read! Just take it for what it's worth and enjoy it!!!

Love: A User's Guide: A Novel of Romance with Attitude 63 reviews Clare Naylor
Ballantine Books, 2004
Pass this one up...
There is much better stuff to read - heck even better chick lit out there! This was not even mildly amusing and the protagonist is downright annoying. With the volume of books in this genre, it won't be difficult to find something more interesting.
