More Chick Lit!

Another Chick Lit Series:

From Kristin Billerbeck:

What A Girl Wants
She's Out of Control
With This Ring, I'm Confused

This series is light, fun and another perfect chick lit read for the summer (or any other season). Ashley Stockingdale is trying to get her life together…It’s not too bad; she has a good job and a great group of friends, but she feels like some things are missing…Mainly, a husband, or at least a boyfriend…As she begins to evaluate her status in the dating world she realizes there is a lot more in front of her than she anticipates…and she has a lot more to offer than she gives herself credit for. I started the first book just to see if it would match up to my favorite Shopoholic series…It wasn’t quite as funny, but I still enjoyed it enough to follow Ashley through her various adventures…

Back From the Beach!!

I just came back from our family reunion which was a fabulous time at the beach filled with many books!! So what is the family reading? I started the trip off with The Devil Wears Prada. I actually read it not too long after it came out, but since the movie comes out this weekend and a girlfriend and I plan on seeing it, I figured rereading it wouldn’t be a bad idea…Plus it’s an excellent beach read!

As for the rest of my family…I was happy to see one of my aunt’s reading one of my summer reading spotlight picks: Sophia Kinsella’s The Undomestic Goddess.

These are what my aunts were recommending and reading:
The Mermaid Chair by Sue Monk Kidd
The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle by Haru Murakami, which was described as a book that is bizarre, but keeps you reading…
Wicked by Gregory Maguire
My Life in France by Julia Child
Garlic and Sapphires : The Secret Life of a Critic in Disguise by Ruth Reichl
