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 well loved book by our family. It is a cute way of explaining how much a parent loves a child and vice versa. It leads to additional debate of how much you love your child. Definitely recommend this to all parents and children.
I spy letters book

I LOVED these I spy books growing up. Just finding all the images and feeling all accomplished when I did. They are great for kids. They will keep a kid busy for a good while.
Candide by Voltaire

1 review

Who knew that a satire written in the mid 1700's could be so hilarious and relatable even today! This was a pleasant surprise as I wasn't aware it was even satire until after I started reading it. This had me laughing out loud many times
The Luckiest Girl Alive By Jessica Knoll

1 review

I was very pleasantly surprised by this book, I found it on many book lists who suggested it if you enjoyed gone girl and the like. Right off the bat when you begin to read this novel it sucks you in and you become invested in the characters. The leading lady is a complicated...
Mamas Always Come Home

1 review

This is a beautiful kids story explaining that although mother's have to leave ( whether it's birds, cats, dogs, humans.etc.) that they always come back home to their babies. This would be a great book for anyone but I think its especially nice for a mother that's going back to...
Papermate® Flair M

I just bought the Papermate Flair Pens to use in a new bullet journal and another journal I bought and I have to say these are my new all-time favorite pens! They are so smooth, such pretty colors, and they don't bleed much if at all! I absolutely love them!
The Art of Racing in the Rain by Garth Stein

4 reviews

A great read. I found it to be very clever that the author wrote the story with the dog as narrator and many times just laughed out loud at the dog's thinking and antics. Funny and sad in parts, you won't want to put iot down. Inspired me to read other books by this author.
Law of attraction

If you are looking for a good read this book is the one, I have bought the Law of attractions collection book as it has the three in one and it is so good. One book I have a hard time putting down I just wish I had more time to read
The Mortal Instrument: City of Glass

2 reviews

This book was at the time quite original for me, I read it many years ago, I will say that for a teen who enjoys this kind of story's this one is a good reading, you will enjoy the characters and the story line, and at the end you will want to get answers, so I do recommend this...
The List by Patricia Forde

1 review

Received an ARC from NetGalley. I found the first half of the book to be rather slow. good premise, I'm interested in finding out more of what happens, but it didn't grab my attention. About halfway through, the plot finally picks up and we understand more of what the...
Craving by Helen Hardt

1 review

I read this book up super quick. Like several hours, over the course of three nights. Every night I couldn't wait to get back to my room to get sucked back in. A bit scattered, as it is about brothers and you are always wondering how things tie together, and they tell a...
Black Dagger Brotherhood: Lover Revealed

1 review

It took me awhile to get into this book as I found it a little boring and lack luster at first. The character makes sense in the book in the end but at first mixing a human into a vampire society is a bit tedious. Overall I ended up finishing and liking the way it all melds...

The Book Thief

6 reviews

I love reading books. I love being taken away to the lands in the books. I am an emotional person, so when I cry reading a book, I know it is an amazing book. I will be keeping this book on my shelf for years to come. I make a point to read the book before watching the movie...
Passion Planner

2 reviews

The planner of all planners. I've used many different kinds of planners but this one is by far my favourite. I usually buy the undated Sunday compact in Timeless Black. It's lightweight and fits easily in most of my purses. I love the breakdown of the day by 1/2 hour increments...
Indefensible

1 review

This book is insane! I loved the authors ability to suck the reader in and keep them wanting more. I couldn't stop turning the pages and devouring every bit of this book. Sick read!
The Inn by William Patterson

1 review

I got this book as I wanted something different. This book is a Horror/Suspense/Murder Mystery. I love Murder Mysteries, but Horror is usually too cheesy or way out there for me to enjoy. This book named The Inn is by William Patterson, and it is his second ever published book...
The Time Keeper by Mitch Albom

4 reviews

's not that it's a bad book. It's a nice little fable and has good intentions. Many will no doubt find it comforting and life-affirming. I just found it all a bit too obvious for my taste. Perhaps I'm just not one who feels I need a fable to remind me how precious our time on...
