2009 Chick Lit Challenge

Back by popular demand, the 2009 Chick Lit Challenge has been expanded for the whole year! From January 1 through December 31, 2009, read at least 10 chick lit books. Books can overlap with other challenges and you can change your list at any time.

I don't use Mr. Linky, but feel free to leave a comment on this post if you would like to participate. You can join any time - this is a laid-back and fun challenge!

Just started blogging 2 months ago so this will be my first challenge. Fitting, since I am technology challenged. Put me on the list and I'll try to figure it out.

Jenny said...

I'm in. I'll have to figure out for sure what chick lit is but it's sure to be something I read anyway. I'm thinking something like "Confessions of a shopaholic" by Sophia Kinsella?

Anonymous said...

I'm in. I don't know for sure what I'm reading yet.

Chick lit can be hard to define. I would say the Shopaholic series by Sophie Kinsella would definitely qualify.

twiga92 said...

Nely, I hadn't thought about doing posts for adding book reviews. I don't use Mr. Linky. But people could just post the links in the comments. I'll try to put a post together for people to comment on with their reviews. It might be this weekend before I get it up though. I'm a bit behind. :-)

Stacy said...

I'd like to participate if it's not too late! I'll post a list shortly. Thanks!

Ladybug said...

I'm in! I like to read something light and funny.
My list is hereI finished Confessions of a Shopaholic this morning and I didn't like it.. It is nothing compared to eg. Bridget Jones. I guess I already have to change my list because I can't stand the idea of reading four more books about Rebecca Bloomwood I think.

purplg8r said...

I'm done! View my completed challenge here

writemeg said...

I'm all finished, too! :) Lots of fun. I clinched the challenge with several books by Megan McCafferty.

If anyone is looking for a great chick lit book to wrap up your reads for this year, you'll love the hilarious novel, The Bum Magnet, about a real estate agent who attracts "fixer uppers" and takes a journey into the nightmares of her boyfriends past to find the source of her bum magnetism.

It's on Barnes & Nobles stores nationwide and Amazon.com, Barnesandnoble.com for a mere ten buck. The story starts and begins over New Year's Eve, so it's a perfect holiday read. Great reviews too!
