| Re: THE BOOK LIST, Pt 1 [quote=mystere;13533] THE BOOK LIST So I pretty much read for a living…I love stories, cracking open a fresh new book, and just the pure joy of experiencing life through someone else’s eyes. Hell, I even work at a library. I just finished reading an amazing book called The Gum Thief by Douglas Coupland, and thought, you know what the world needs right now? A book list. A book list by Rebecca. So since I’m pretty passionate about ‘em, and I think it’s important, here’s a bunch of books {and book paraphernalia (authors)} in different categories, à mon avis. My favourite writers – well you could prob see most of this on my profile anyway, but here they are: -JENNIFER WEINER --- well-written chick lit? I know, I know, hard to imagine. In fact, it’s kinda unfair to label Jennifer Weiner as a chick lit writer; her books go far deeper than the next shoe sale or one night stand. Granted, a lot of her stories have really similar protagonists, but they’re not formulaic. Whatever, the characters work and seem realistic, plus they’re entertaining and satirical. Favourite book: Good in Bed (the title is more provocative than the book, tho ) I recently discovered this author and love to read her books. She's quirky. I haven't read "'Good in Bed" yet. \ Right now I'm reading "The Elegant Gathering of White Snows" by Kris Radish. It is chick lit with emotion. -
