Hissy Fit By Mary Kay Andrews Read: January 2011 Rating: Enjoyable Chick lit that isn’t all about the romance! It’s a nice change of pace. Keeley Murdock is an interior designer in the small down of Madison, Georgia. It’s the rehearsal dinner for her marriage to a rich, influential young man from a good family. Then she [...] Full Story	Ella Enchanted By Gail Carson Levine Read: Repeatedly since 1997. Most recently, April 2010 Rating: J’adore Some books are like old friends. It doesn’t matter where you left off, or how long it’s been, you fall right back into friendship as soon as you meet up. Ella Enchanted is one of my favorite books. I can still [...] Full Story	Movie vs. Book: Ella Enchanted Once upon a time, I discovered a wonderful, wonderful book. Gail Carson Levine’s Ella Enchanted is immerses you in Ella’s world, giving you a best friend as well as an adventure. Then Hollywood got their hands on it. And THEY RAPED IT. Below is an off-the-cuff rant I wrote in 2004, before the movie was [...] Full Story
Girls With Slingshots By Danielle Corsetto Read: July 2009 Rating: Squee! http://www.girlswithslingshots.com GWS is one of those comics that’s been around for years and often pops up when you’re reading other comics. It took me a long time to get around to it for some reason. Something Positive is doing a crossover, though, so I gave it a [...] Full Story	Everything’s Coming Up Josey By Susan May Warren Read: November-December 2006 Rating: Surprisingly Enjoyable (woah, 2 words!) Again, school project, the same as Lambert’s Pride. I discovered that Harlequin has, in fact, been publishing evangelical Christian Chick Lit! Yes, Chick Lit! How’s that to make your head spin? Josey has accepted Christ into her heart, but she has yet [...] Full Story	Utterly Charming By Kristine Grayson Read: October 2006 Rating: Fun Not the best written book of all time, but it was enjoyable. Whatever you do, do NOT read the back cover. It’s crap and has NOTHING to do with the rest of the story. That Dear Diary crap? It’s not in the character’s voice and she doesn’t [...] Full Story
The Enchanted Forest Chronicles By Patricia C. Wrede Read: When I was but a lass… and July 2006. Rating: Fun These were my very first proper fantasy novels. I’d recently made the graduation from the low paperback shelves to the (seemingly) giant big kids’ shelves, and had only been able to find books like Mrs. PigglyWiggly and brush up [...] Full Story	If Only It Were True By Marc Levy Rating: Disappointing Read: June 2006 A quaint little bestseller from 2001 about love that transcends (near) death. A 2005 chick flick starring Reese Witherspoon. The movie was better. It was much more real. That says a lot about the book. It was passed on to me by mother, who got it from [...] Full Story	The Barefoot Princess Christina Dodd Rating: Hmm Read: Feb 2006 Ok, so. Here’s how my week has been. Couldn’t take Claritin cuz I have an allergist appointment later. Thought that was why I was stuffy on Tuesday. Turned into a horrific, raging cold thing on Wednesday. So I went to the drug store on 13th for Day/NyQuil, Gatorade, [...] Full Story
Sex & the City By Candace Bushnell Cheaper than the DVDs: Amazon.com Rating: Typical Read: July 2005 I adore the show to BITS. But, I read Bushnell’s 4 Blondes perhaps two years ago and was thoroughly unimpressed. She’s the Fitzgerald of her generation in that she writes about the American ‘aristocracy’, which is a thoroughly jaded, degernate, and utterly [...] Full Story	She Woke Up Married By Suzanne Macpherson Rating: Enjoyable. Read: May/June 2005 No, I didn’t miss a write-up or stop reading- I just… well, I missed a write-up. More on Melanie Rawn’s Dragon Prince later. Lets talk Chick Lit. I have a weakness for reading bad romances just to see how bad they are. They can also be amusing, [...] Full Story
