Adler "Just call me Rita" Book 1984


message 4: by Patricia (new)

Patricia how do i keep up with this list??


message 5: by Leana (new)

Leana Is there a way to fallow this list?


message 6: by Caffenero (new)

Caffenero Yep! how do i keep up with this list??


message 7: by skyla (new)

skyla kirby I love books like this that are girly and have awesome covers but I never jugue a book by its cover it just so happens though that the books with the awesome covers are the one I like to read. I can't stand books that are oldies like the books before my grandparents were alive! I like the newer type for they have things that I know about. I hate it when a book keep talking about thing that I don't know about it just makes me feel so dumb for I AM in the sixth grade and have a fourthteen reading grade level and I skiped pre-k and kitergranden!


message 8: by Mandy (new)

Mandy Shank I love the list but I think perfect chemistry and Two way strret should be on here. Those are my two favoritest books ever!!!!!


message 9: by Susanna (new)

Susanna The form to add books to the list is at the right-hand side of the page.


message 10: by Cissy (new)

Cissy Chen okay 'Pride and Prejudice' & 'The thorn birds' are NO chick-lit


message 11: by Rose (last edited Jun 16, 2010 12:18pm) (new)

Rose I added "Agnes and the Hitman" to this list because I could definitely say that it is chick-lit without a doubt in my mind. It's a very nice book if someone wants something a little different than the usual light romantic read.

I am surprised by how most of this list contains books that aren't necessarily chick-lit at all. Classics, yes. Romances, yes. But not what I'd call chick-lit.

Edit: And why the devil is Twilight on this list? It's NOT chick-lit, lol!


message 12: by Brittney (new)

Brittney i'm loving this list :)


message 13: by Susanna (new)

Susanna Because Twilight must appear on all lists, whether it qualifies for them or not!

:P


message 15: by Vampirella (new)

Vampirella Good in Bed is such a great chick-lit.


message 16: by Jessie (new)

Jessie pride and prejudice is maybe the ORIGINAL chick lit! just an older style.

but agreed, twilight has no place here!


message 17: by Neah (new)

Neah Wow I am a little surprised to not see the Help a little further up on the list. It is a little different than most Chick lit genre books, but I think it still qualifies and is FANTASTIC!


message 18: by Ðɑηηɑ (new)

Ðɑηηɑ Jane Eyre - a chicklit?! Are you insane?How could you! JE is a classic hfromancegothis, NOT a chick lit! Not every book in the world about women is chicklit!


message 19: by Zuewie (new)

Zuewie Carumba following~!


message 20: by Fatin (new)

Fatin There's this book about a girl who ends up being a pretty famous celebrity and it's called something like "Everybody who's anybody"
can somebody tell me if they know the exact name of the book?
The cover has a the back of a girl sitting on a ledge, and you can see her pink thong through her jeans.

Everyone Worth Knowing by Jennifer Weisberger (same author as The Devil Wears Prada)?? I dunno about the cover, but does that sound right? Her other books are really good too!!


message 23: by Fatin (new)

Fatin It was Everyone Who's Anyone. I mixed up the cover with something else though.
Thanks!
