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.

Angels & Manifesting

1 review

I recently discovered this psychic who is the author of many books, Laura Powers. In 2 weeks I flew through 4 of her books and Angels & Manifesting was one of my favs, although I am loving them all. I love learning about angels and how to invite them to help with your life.

The A to Z of You and Me by James Hannah

1 review

Full Disclosure: I received this book through NetGalley, to read and review, before publication. However the book was published before I finished reading it. This book was a rollercoaster of emotions. Ups and downs. Highs and lows. Just like real life. Ivo is a 40 year old...
Alice by Christina Henry

1 review

Love the idea, but I just found this a little bit of a juvenile read for me. I usually enjoy teen or young adult books as well, despite being firmly in the 'adult' category, but I found myself having to force my way through this one. Fairy story retellings or reimaginings...

Macbeth

The Bards best work. Interesting and easy to follow. No romantic nonsense, can't stand romance. I liked it even better the second time I read it, the older style of english takes a bit of getting used to.
the CONSEQUENCES by Colette Freedman

Good story told from three perspectives. It starts with the perspective of the mistress, then the cheating husband, and finally wife. It goes over the same story and days from different angles. I've never read a book written from this perspective before. Very interesting and...

This is where my obsession began --- I started reading this book quite late after it came out - a girl at work got me to start reading them and it became my lunch time ritual. This book is a GREAT start to the series. I was captivated from the first page.

This is an amazing book and the character portrayed in it is amazing. The characterization of this book and the detail in written form is great. The intro of new characters and how they all blend is great writing.
