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.

I got this on sale at toysrus.ca and it's one of my sons favourite books. Very easy to learn and very cute story.

I finished reading this on the weekend and it was quite informative. I won this and it came with a short note signed by John Grisham. It came directly from Virginia. If you're interested in one, go tofusfoundation.org and you too can get a copy.

I paid $8.00 for this on Amazon and I think it was a great deal considering there is so much information in this that a kid would really enjoy and a bunch of stickers as well. Great buy!

I got this for $8.00 on Amazon for my sister because she wanted to do a book report on it, so I got it and we read it together and it was a great story and worth every penny.

This is a great book for those who love the combination of fashion, beauty, and history! Every article in this book has been well researched and are equally compelling. It explores the affect of fashion on humans, and humans on fashion, and society on individuals etc. They...

Love these fashion journals, and I love how they always follow a theme, which doesn't happen often in smaller indie magazines. This magazine focuses on fashion, history, and the present. Love the artwork and photography and articles, a real treat for those fashionable...

My favorite book from John Green so far, a great mixture of romance and math! The author really dug deep for this one, even collaborating with a mathematician to work out equations and graphs of love. Loved the characters, and most of all, the themes. Great book!

I didn't enjoy this book, but the ending itself deserved a star added on. Perhaps I'm used to the way horror is done nowadays, but even then I can't really stand it when a character spends a lot time telling me how much something affected them and how horrible it was. The story...

The premise of the novel is great; it definitely got my interest when I heard of it years ago, but I kept pushing it down my reading list. Maybe I've been tainted by YA, but I feel like it fell flat with its idea. I wanted revolution! Change! And instead I got an interesting and...

This book had a terrible start and I thought I was never going to get through it. Even though it did take me longer than usual to plow through, it did prove to be a sensational read and I enjoyed myself thoroughly with the overdramatic narration. I often got confused with who...

I didn't particularly enjoy this book. The plot didn't interest me enough, even though it was a decent one overall, and I kept forgetting who was who. I also didn't like the formatting; as in, there were places were a quotation mark should end and then the characters thoughts...

This was a decent end to the trilogy. Perhaps it wasn't what I expected, or at least what I wanted, but it was satisfying and it ended on a good note. It reminded me of what happened in the last book without sounding like a retelling (which is good in itself because I couldn't...

As a memoir, it was a good read to see into King's life. There wasn't as much on the craft as I would've liked, but his life as the writer and aspiring author, as well as his life as the prolific writer that he is, was interesting to read. The memories shared were poignant and...

My first experience of this story was through "The Madman's Daughter", a retelling of the story. I think I would've appreciated that story more had I read this first since I found myself being reminded of it often through the names and plot points in the original;...

Despite having easy readability, the book was hard to go through because of the lack of plot buildup in the beginning. I already knew once I started reading that Juliet would end up going to see her father wherever he was, and the romance (love triangle) felt so forced. I also...

The Italian had the typical Gothic horror feel so there wasn't anything disappointing in that regard however I did wish I had a better sense of where things were heading as the plot progressed. It went on quite a bit longer than I felt it should've but at least it mostly kept me...

Disclaimer: I received this book for free as part of a Goodreads Giveaway. Despite how the world got me from the get-go, I found it hard to keep reading. The first chapter had everything it could ever need to grab a reader's interest yet I just couldn't read more than a few...

This was a good end to a good series. We saw Kel all the way through her trials, and now we got to see how she handled herself as an adult and as a knight after all her trials. Her title and the series' title, the Protector of the Small, finally makes sense here, although it...
