Get your hands on ANY Sarah Dessen book you can find.
Her writing is amazing!
Every book, you can relate to perfectly.

Also:
The Last Summer by Ann Brashares.
Yeah, that's right, she wrote other books too.
That one was greeeeat.
Such a love story.

Looking For Alaska by John Green.
That book is really inspiring.
And there is a bit of a love story thrown in there as well.
Help yourself to some good reading.

Cool! I loved that site, and will have to check out the Diary of a Teenage Girl. I have heard of it, but never really looked into it. I have read the BSG, and though I would not exactly call them Christian, they were OK.

To answer your earlier question, I think that the difference between romance and chick lit is that chick lit does not necessarily have to contain romance, and if it does, it usually is just there and is not the main focus of the story line. Romance, on the other hand, is focused mainly on, well, romance! It does not really contain as much drama, friendship, and the other things that make up good chick lit.

And, for really no apparent reason, I seem to associate chick lit more with teens, and romance with adults. I don't know why, I just kind of do.....

Sorry to "interrupt" here, but if anyone knows of any Christian chick lit, I would love the recommendations!!! Thanks!

2008-07-30T23:17:00.000-05:00

it could but that's not all it would be based on, the major plot would be the love story
in chick lit you would have different aspects to the book

Don't you think romance can include all those things as well?

2008-07-25T16:09:00.000-05:00

chick lit and romance are not the same thing
chick lit can include romance but also many other topics such as gossip, friendship and school stuff

I loved My Sister's Keeper, and agree that everyone should read it. I used to read Sarah Dessen, and I like reading her books, but a week after I finished them, I wouldn't be able to remember much about them. Maybe the characters weren't memorable or maybe I just couldn't relate to the stories very well.

2008-07-22T15:51:00.000-05:00

sounds like a great story, mrs.brittanycullen! I'm adding that to my "to read list."

I have another question for everyone...
In your opinion, what is the difference between romance and chick lit? Is it the same thing?...

2008-07-22T14:30:00.000-05:00

another really good book is called my sister's keeper by jodi piccoult. its really cool. its not necessarily chick lit but it is filled with drama!!

its about this girl whose sister has leukemia. The sister needs bone marrow donations, but no one in their family is a match. so the parents have like a test tube baby that is a match. She has tons of operations and stuff all her life but she finally puts her foot down and hires a lawyer to like medically emancipate herself from her family...so she doesnt have to donate to her sister anymore. there are so many twists and turns in it...its great!!
