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.

I got this book before the publishing date to review, and really enjoyed it. It is fiction, but is written in a memoir style. It chronicles a gay teen who desperately wants to be famous and his journey to the top and his struggles to stay there. The story and feel is similar to...

Like in all of her books, Jodi Picoult puts the reader in a position where he/she has to decide what is "moral" and what is "good". This is a story of a mother forced to make a very difficult decision that may not be "orthodox" or even "appropriate', but which is nonetheless one...

This is a wonderful book. At under 200 pages, it is almost a novella, but it is utterly engaging. It speaks to the horror of war, but also the strength of friendship between women. I did not want it to end, but had to keep reading.

I am in recovery from an Eating Disorder and this subject matter is very close to me. I believe there is a need for people who suffer from this disease to speak up about their illness - to educate people, but more importantly, to share with others who are still...

Since I work in a library I get all my material there, but the sale price is pretty good at chapters. Especially since the movie will be out soon (which I cannot wait to see). The book starts out with a young white girl who feels unloved by her father. When her nanny, a black...

OK, where do I begin. . .I met Jeanine at a conference in Miami. She was a speaker, and quite the showman. She had us laughing and smiling and thinking... I purchased her book right then and there. Industry In:Site covers every "job" in The Beauty Feild. Literally, everything...

Controversial, well-researched and well-written intriguing, captivating book about issues relating to religion and human rights that affect us today, just as they affected us thousands of years ago. Every religious and non-religious person should read this book. The author uses...

I was watching an interview that Pharrel Williams did with Oprah and he said this was one of his faves. So I bought it. I have to its one of mine as well. I leant it to my best friend and she's in love with it to. I fear I might have to wrestler her to get it back. It's not...

Although this was my least favourite book of the series it was still an intricate part of the series and would recommend this book to anyone! It is extremely important that this book is read to get all the facts so the series as a whole makes sense.

Extremely enjoyed this book and it was a great end to the Twilight series. I couldn't put this books down - originally read it on my Kobo and when my Kobo broke and I no longer had it I ran out to my the book! Would recommend it tremendously!

I'm not a big fan of sci-fi, but this book was a great read for me! I loved the whole concept of the society, that people can make themselves "beautiful", it really makes you question what can be defined as beautiful. A great dystopian novel!

For those who need to get their finances in order then I definitely recommend this book. It is such an easy read. Compared to other financial books, it was surprisingly easy to understand and it's made a huge impact on my life. I had bought this book back when I was 25...

Ugh, and I mean that about the tear jerker! Had to read through the tears but so are most beautifully written and inspiring stories. Amazing how words can really pull on the heart strings. Wonderful book.

Absolutely loved this incredible book. A story about a young fourteen year old girl who was murdered, interestingly told from her perspective afterwards. Definitely a compelling read, and a realistic view of what families go through after dealing with a loss in the family.

I saw the author on Oprah years ago and loved his message...very powerful. Then I bought the book for afriend for her birthday because she's into these kinds of genres. Yet, I had still not read it. Then I finally borrowed it from the library. I was tearing up all throughout...

"A novel about drinks, dating and other distractions" is the tagline for Sarah Mlynowski's chick lit novel. This is the perfect read for any girl in her 20s who is looking for a light read with relatable characters who go through first apartments and boyfriends, roommates...

This is the most gorgeous cook book I've ever had. David Rocco is apparently on the Food Network, but I hadn't heard about him or this book until I discovered it at Chapters. Between the fact that it is recipes from Tuscany and the gorgeous pictures on every page, I...

An amazing biography of a very strong woman who has been through hell and back. By "hell" I mean the death of her mother, foster care, prostitution, drug abuse, homelessness, and the list goes on. I could not imagine what it must be like to walk in her shoes. This is an...
