Chick Lit discussion

Hi everyone--

I'm looking for chick lit books that are written in multiple genres, like Meg Cabot's Boy series. So the book is written in e-mails, journals, IMs, etc. but no traditional paragraphs. Can anyone send me in the direction of some others in that style?

Thank you!
Kristin

Cecelia Ahern's WHERE RAINBOWS END is written in the style you mention.

Try Holly's Inbox by Holly Denham. I've bought it but haven't had a chance to read it yet but it is in the email format. Rosie Dunne (also titled Love, Rosie) by Cecelia Ahern is written through notes, letters, text messages, emails, etc. I liked the format of the book and the story was OK but a little slow in my opinion.

I have read holly's inbox -- it was light & easy& a nice change from traditional writing. It was long & I got a little antsy toward the end but recommend it since that's specifically what you're looking for! If you find more titles let us know!

I love books like this. I absolutly love reading diaries and things of that sort. I am interested in all the books that will come out.

If I remember correctly, Go Ask Alice is a diary written form and It is one of my favorite books.

Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas I think is written in diary entry format.

Diary of a Mad Bride and Diary of a Mad Mom-to-Be both by Laura Wolf are in a diary format and are hilarious!!!

Melissa - Go Ask Alice was a powerful book. I read it a couple times in my teen years

Very powerful! I remember reading it in one or maybe two sitttings - it was very gripping...

Starting Over
Hi! I just wanted to post up about a fabulous book--more to be found at Choc Lit Publishing, if you love a scrummy read! STARTING OVER by Sue Moorcroft is truly delicious escapism, yet touches on familiar life and love crises experienced by woman or man alike. Oh, and what a man! A hero, absolutely, but a flawed one, who never pretends to be anything but what he is, you simply cannot help but love Miles Arnott-Rattenbury, affectionately know as "Ratty". A man who, once he sets his sights on something...or someone, single-mindedly, determinedly; unconventionally, goes for it. And when Ratty gives up his heart, he gives all of it. Sigh... How could a man like that not fall in love with a vulnerable, pretty, feisty, strong, independent woman like his "Princess" Tess? And yes, she is all of those. A gorgeous gamut of emotions that make her human.

The book deals with those thorny parent issues. They struggle to deal with legacies of loves past... It is simply a heart-warming, emotionally rewarding read. Giving nothing away, the ending is perfect! My eyes filled up on one page, I was shouting, No! on the next, Yesss! on the next, a nail-biting, Ooooh God! on another. I finished this novel with a huge lump in my throat. Loved it. Pure Choc Lit. Well done, Sue Moorcroft!

Sheryl - fan!
