oooh, I loved Gemma Townley's Jessica Wild books...in fact, I've got the next one on my shelf to read..when can I find the time for all these great books! I really wish I didn't need to sleep:)












I just finished reading this last week! Let me know what you think. I have mixed feelings about the storyline but I do like Emily Giffin's style of writing. And I started "Love the One You're With" this week.



I just fini..."
I liked it except I COULD NOT see why she hadn't ditched Darcy long ago. Kind of like my reaction to the movie Sliding Doors-- LOVEd the movie except I couldn't understand what either of the women would see in that guy.


OH, I loved that book, it was so good!

I felt the same way, this book had been on my bookshelf for a long time. I finally read it last month. It was a great book!












I saw Jane Green books at the library the other day. I was wondering if she was any good. Have you read other books by her?




I'm going to put that on my to-read list! I love chick lit!





Thanks for the suggestions! I'll put them on my to do read list. I'm slowly getting into the Sookie Stackhouse series by Charlaine Harris and if you haven't read Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness you should. I'm over the whole vampire/sci fi thing but this book is AWESOME! and it's the first of a trilogy.




I've read 3 or 4 others of hers and liked them-- they're chick lit but not the zany or over-consumerist kind. If you like Marian Keyes, she's like that but English as opposed to Irish-- focused on the relationships in her books rather than on the jobs or the props.




I like her books, too - sometimes she's funny because she'll be writing about Americans and use a British phrase, which is a little weird, but I guess I'd do that if I were writing about another country, too!







I picked up the Beach house at a bookstore yesterday!
