Book Dish: Your
Beach Chick Lit Fix
When and if it ever stops raining
you may get out to the beach, pool, or at least fire escape to sit in the sun
and read a good book.
Don't let any of your literary snob friends fool you either, a "good book" is
whatever you think it is. Do not be pressured into reading something you do not
want to. Do not let anyone make fun of you for having a "chick lit" fetish
either because I have been reading some of the most amazingly well written books
lately that just happen to fall into that category.
As busy moms we need our escape and if that means reading about the fabulous
world of dating and living vicariously, or going back to the juicy gossipy times
of high school than so be it. Here are my picks for early summer reading:
The Notebook Girls
Scarily enjoyable and easy to pick up and put down. Takes you back to high
school and makes you cringe. A guilty pleasure, and a reminder that for our
kids, high school will be here before you know it- but what can we do
differently for our kids so they do not have to suffer through the gossips and
clique's? Maybe nothing, maybe it's a fact of life, but I think we can try.

Seven Ways to Lose Your Lover
From author Alesia Holliday
who wrote, Nice Girls Finish First, Seven Ways To Lose Your Lover is a
great way to live vicariously through a woman on the dating scene. As always
Holliday's books build themselves with her knack for details and working them in
at just the right times. Grab this book, it's hot off of the press.
Shane Madison isn't trying to screw up her life, she is just trying to make a
buck and find a beau. Is that so much to ask?

Dating Amy
50 Dates. That is all. Can't be that hard right? Amy has dedicated 2
years of her life to going on 50 dates and bunking and de-bunking dating myths.
This book is easy to read, easy to pick up and put down due to each chapter
being a different date, and most of all it's funny. You feel her joy and her
pain and you will want more.
This is a true story. 1 woman, on a mission, with a
blog.
