CHICK LIT

When Oman was there inside my belly, kicking, i spent most of my latest 3 months' nights reading novels before sleeping. Those i've read were Confession of a Shopaholic, The Undomestic Goddess , Can you keep a Secret by Sophie Kinsella and A Girl Thing by Sarah O'Brien. They're amazing!!

It's a HUGE pause that after Oman has been delivered, i was no more looking at any novels until recently i bought Twenties Girl by Sophie Kinsella. To my surprise, i completed reading it within 3 days. What an achievement to myself!!

This regaining spirit was actually charmed by Iza, Anne and Thara, the mommies who are also into reading today, plus a little remaining reading passion left in my blood. I have to thank you, ladies!! ;)

I love Chick lit stories!! I found the message being sent to me in a way that it's light and easy to understand, inspiring, hilarious, naughty, colorful, stylista. Owh how i love most the cover presentation with amusing images, icons and fonts. However, i would one day give myself a try for a more adults stories, more lively.. Sidney Sheldon maybe? :)

To newbies chick lit fans, i found a website titled Chick Lit Books devoted to the chick lit genre. It featured a huge chick lit database, several reviewers, hundreds of reviews and a lot more. Check it out!! From the 5 stars ranked books, i am now hunting for these;


I have yet found them. Perhaps after everything with Oman's health has been in order. Aamin!

Owh! Owh! Shopaholic fan, hands up?????? Have you heard about 'Mini Shopaholic' which to be released out on September? Weewit!! Can't wait to follow the adventurous life of Becky and her new daughter :)

Becky's junior soon in the market!!

Peeps, have you ever tried to buy a book through online? Me no.
A friend of my friend, she is the owner of
Jules Online Bookstore, where you could find ready and pre-order books to bargain with reasonable price!! The books in the collection are not bad at all! Let's try!! :p

  6. ooh nuurill, if i may, sebenarnya, Sophie Kinsella is not formerly known as Madeleine Wickham. she is still the Madeleine Wickham, thats her real name - Sophie Kinsella is just her pen name. kira nama glamor dia lah tu. :P

    Kinsella ada a few books yang dia tulis under the name of Madeleine Wickham. u can check out some of her books here > http://www.fantasticfiction.co.uk/w/madeleine-wickham/

    but my sister ckp buku2 Madeleine Wickhams dia tu, tak brapa best. serious, ala2 adult books tu la. so i'll just stick to her Kinsellas lah :P
