Chic Lit


Chick Lit is a new genre focusing on 20-something and 30-something single women. Think Ally McBeal, Bridget Jone's Diary and most recently Sex in the City.

I really enjoy Chick Lit books. They are fun to read and reveal stuff that really does happen in a woman's life. There are so many books in this area, that I've not had a chance to read. A large number of them come from England, go figure.

Jennifer Weiner has two books, which I enjoyed terribly. Good in Bed and In Her Shoes. I have to admit I bought Good in Bed because I expected to read the kind of stuff that makes a person blush. That did not happen. It was a genuinely sweet story.

These books did not activate my philosophical brain cells; instead, they made me laugh and sigh.
