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.

This is a series of books that I grew up on. They were the very first series that got me hooked on reading. Even now I own a few books from the series and the quality of the series is timeless, just like the Sherlock Homes series. These books are an easy read and are perfect for...

A great film that might leave you in tears at the end, it's a funny but sad movie. I've watched it many times since it came out and still do from time to time.

Creoly Handmade Plain Journal Refill (6" x 8")

1 review

This is a great option if you're really attached to your journal so you can glue in extra pages or remove the old ones and add this to start over. Paper wise it's great quality, but I didn't like it as much as the original paper in some of the Creoly notebooks I tried. It's...

I think this book is so neat. I'm not an artist but I love to colour. I feel like an artist when I am done with a picture!

Leather Blank Journal Sketchbook 6" X 8" Vintage Notebook

1 review

This journal is absolutely lovely with a hand-bound/handmade feel that will endear it to certain people far more than a mass-produced plastic faced diary. It doesn't feel flimsy, or amateurish though, it's very sleek and well-made with an undeniable level of quality. It's real...

The Last Girl

1 review

I really enjoyed this book. It's the better part of 400 pages, and I read it in two days. I couldn't put it down. The whole story is told from the protagonist's -- Zoey's -- perspective, so it's easy to identify with her and see her world as she does. Another thing this author...
Dogs book

Our youngest son doesn’t usually sit in one place for long but we can read this over and over while he just sits smiling and staring! The pictures are lovely and it’s not too long. More expensive than some of our other books!

Fat Girl Walking by Brittany Gibbons

1 review

Brittany Gibbons is funny as can be and blunt, which is a nice refresher. She writes with so much humour and honesty that it feels like you're listening to the life story of your best friend. She writes about her history with weight, body image, self respect (sometimes lack of)...

Women: Body-Positive Art to Inspire and Empower

this book was confronting some of my own and realising that I cannot say 'it's not your business' about certain parts of my own lifestyle while passing judgement on another. Throughout this book Carol Rossetti (who you may have seen dotted around the internet) accompanies...
Wide awake jake book

I got this book on sale from toysrus.ca and I got it for my son who loves receiving books. He really liked this story about a little boy who has trouble falling asleep, I feel he could relate to it which I think a lot of little kids could especially if they are now sleeping in a...
Dr. Seuss Green Eggs And Ham Sam I Am

Thought I'd add this little gem after seeing someone added cat in the hat. I didn't know people were still buying these. All the Seuss books I have now for the grandkids are from the 70's I never knew any kid that did not like these; so glad they are still out there.
Ferus+fivel Leather Bound Journal Notebook Diary with Wraparound Strap 5" X 7"

1 review

This journal would make a gorgeous gift for those who want an authentic looking leather journal either for traditional reasons or as a prop. It has a ton of pages, so as a journal would last a long, long time. Unfortunately I feel like page thickness has been sacrificed a bit to...
The Rosie Effect by Graeme Simsion

2 reviews

I read the Rosie Project and was so excited to read the sequel as the first novel was fun, quick paced and charming, with a different edge than most romantic fiction. I was not as impressed with The Rosie Effect. I found it very slow moving and lacking the humor the first had. I...

Never before have I read a book where I wanted so much more. My heart aches to know the rest of their story. I need to know. This book is like nothing I have ever read before. It follows a journey of hundreds of lifetimes, hundreds of years of Daniel trying to find his one true...
