Books Reviews

Curling up with a good book is a favourite year-round pursuit: in front of a blazing fire in January, in the park under a warm May sun, in a hammock lake-side in July or with coffee on the back porch overlooking brilliant fall foliage.

ChickAdvisor members love light reads like the wildly popular Shopaholic series by Sophie Kinsella or the more introspective romances of Emily GiffinHe's Not That Into You gives us food for thought, and Stephenie Meyer's Twilight series is a guilty little pleasure.

A much cleaner novel then fifty shades of grey. It has seduction, forbidden love and redemption. A story of a professor and his student. How they met, their pasts, their struggles, finding happiness and peace.

This is an amazing author I found buying at the Thrift Shop. I wanted a pocket book that was under 200 pages. This looked very interesting. It was an original cover and the book was published in 1970. A Surgeon named John Edwards recieves a letter post marked from Moscow, but...
Of Mice and Men

2 reviews

Having seen this movie and read the book several times, I feel Of Mice and Men is full of life lessons through the characters that are still relevant today. With Candy's poor old dog, it was an emotional scene but it bought home that sometimes we have to be cruel to be kind by...

Superman And Batman Comics

2 reviews

I practically grew up with on Batman, he as my biggest role model when I was a child. When I was a kid, I couldn't afford to buy the comics (they're for adults now), so I would watch the tv show obsessively. Now as an adult, you can be sure that I have quite the collection!

Abhorsen by Garth Nix

1 review

This book was a satisfying end to the series. The first time I read this as a teen it was a bit disappointing (or upsetting, rather), but I didn't understand as much back then. Now that I understand things better, it was a great ending. I liked Mogget's final involvement and...
