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 Giffin. He's Not That Into You gives us food for thought, and Stephenie Meyer's Twilight series is a guilty little pleasure.

A very fun and unique cook book from Yotam Ottolenghi. The recipes are not always the easiest, but there is plenty for chefs of any skill range. The flavors are very middle eastern in origin and they are perfect for summer cooking sessions. I would definitely recommend this to...

I have a good number of Jewish cookbooks and vegetarian cookbooks, but this one is probably my favorite in both categories. The text and headnotes before the recipes are interesting, and virtually all of the recipes that I've tried so far have been terrific. I have particularly...

A modern-day Romeo and Juliet story. Although, I enjoyed how real they portrayed high school life and the thoughts/feelings of being a teenager. Worth the read.

Best book ever! Allie's storytelling and cartoons are endlessly hilarious and in turns serious. I read this book when I was suffering with severe depression and reading Allie helped me through it. I highly recommend this book.

The book has many pleasant surprises and much character building. As an aside, Chapter 33 is an exquisite caricature of a political party event - it is absolutely brilliant. I really enjoyed this one and look forward to the third book.

95% of people have super powers, except for the main character Phil. He just seems to get in the way. It's very cleaver, witty, neat, and a great geek read. Here is the author Daryl Pollock's description of the story: Cyrus Archer. At nineteen, he already leads one of the...

Absolutely astounding comic series. Rat queens is about four mercenary women each with distinct, believable and deeply flawed aspects of personality. Never have female characters in a comic series been written so realistically. The art is beautiful (though the firing of the...

I was very annoyed with the multiple plot lines going on in the beginning. I was less annoyed when I realized it was just two plus the one snippet from the beginning but it was though to keep track of names and threads from the both of them. I eventually got the hang of it and...

I love this book and hated to see the last page. I enjoyed reading about some of the historical characters and the many adventures of the characters. Jumping back and forth between future and past can be difficult, but I couldn't wait to read what would happen next.
