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

The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins

Honestly, don't judge this book by the movie. It's a solid book with an original plot line. Suzanne's writing is nice to read. A great book to take to the beach if you haven't already read it.

A Song of Ice and Fire by George R. R. Martin.

This series is one I have enjoyed hugely. There is so many characters and each has a rich story line I got lost for hours. There are many twists and turns and major cliffhangers, hats off to George RR Martin each book was more exciting than the last and keeps me wanting more!

Dark Tower 1- The Gunslinger by Stephen King

Out of all the Stephen Kings books this is the best! I love all the Gunslinger's. They are not the usual for King, but worth reading!

The Lost City of Z by David Grann

I really loved this book because it's non-fiction that reads as effortlessly as a fictional novel. It's also very informative, and I gained a lot of new insight about Amazonian exploration which I never knew before. It was very eye-opening, at at times disgusting (the bugs!)...

The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson

I just finished The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and I loved it. I found it a little hard to get into the story, but once the story line got going, it was great! You do have to be paying attention, as it can get a little complicated with who is who as I found there were a number...

Face Forward by Kevyn Aucoin

I'm kindof a nerd so if I have an interest in a subject I like to read and research on it, even makeup! As just your average makeup user some people might find it a bit extreme to source out books that most pro MUAs enjoy. To my surprise I found the two Aucoin books I read...

Fast Food Nation

This is great, and gross - all in the same! I honestly learned so much about the fast food industry, and now I have sworn it all off. I will never allow myself another burger, or my children. You seriously need to read this, and get snapped into reality! Shocking.

Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen

This book is truly my one guilty pleasure. Its such a classic and heart-warming tale, it's hard to imagine what life was like in earlier times, but this novel gives a clear idea and is well written. Jane Austen is a world renowned 18th-19th century author for a reason. She also...

INCREDIBLE BOOK! If you're at all interested in WW2, the army, history, or just want a good read, pick this up! The other reviewer gave a very good overview so I won't go into too much detail, except to say that this book is incredibly well written for a war novel and tells a...
