Fatal Distraction by Emmi Fredericks

Fatal Distraction by Emmi Fredericks

I must say, reading all the YA books lately has kind of gotten me out of the mood of my chick lit books. Or else, maybe I don’t have as many that are as great as ones I’ve had in the past. This was an okay book. But it wasn’t one that I couldn’t put […]

Goodnight Tweetheart by Teresa Medeiros

Goodnight Tweetheart by Teresa Medeiros

I have to say, this is one of the first chick lit books I have read in a long time that I was dog earing the pages that had things I wanted to talk about when I blogged. The first one I’d literally laughed out loud over and over as I was reading it. I […]

A Hollywood Ending by Robyn Sisman

A Hollywood Ending by Robyn Sisman

My latest chick lit read. It was okay. It’s kind of hard for me to relate to a movie star main character, but I did enjoy the setting of her moving to London. It’s always fun to think about moving to a foreign country and falling in love. It was a bargain book, so cheap, […]

Herself by Leslie Carroll

Herself by Leslie Carroll

This was my latest chick lit book. It took longer because of course I’m trying to get through the Gateway nominees pretty quickly. Other than I didn’t necessarily connect with the main character Tessa Craig because of her age and job, I love what she did. When her politician boyfriend basically ends their relationship, she […]

Good Girls Gone Bad by Jillian Medoff

Good Girls Gone Bad by Jillian Medoff

A bargain chick lit book. I have a whole big shopping bag full of them. Over the summer, I kept one in my master bath to read during bubble baths only. I’m thinking that will be over for awhile as I want to spend all my time reading the books for the Gateway List and […]

Pink Slip Party by Cara Lockwood

Pink Slip Party by Cara Lockwood

Now after reading Bride Needs Groom, I was thinking that most mass market size romance books are more the traditional “romance” style than the chick lit that I prefer. This was TOTALLY the kind of book I enjoy. It had some really goofy parts that made me laugh out loud, as well as the kind […]

Bride Needs Groom by Wendy Markham

Bride Needs Groom by Wendy Markham

Don’t remember when I got this, I know it’s mine, because it’s stripped cover. My sister returned it to me just recently. I should know that normally mass market romance books are not really the ones I like, but it wasn’t too bad. A lot of stereotypes of Italians in it, some fun, some annoying. […]

Room for Love by Andrea Meyer

Room for Love by Andrea Meyer

Can’t remember why I ordered this book into the store. But the plot of it sounded pretty good. The main character, Jacquie, is a writer for a film magazine, and also of course looking for love. She gets the idea to meet guys by answering their ads for roommates in the want ads. And decides […]
