Thank you! I seriously made a list of every book mentioned in this post.

I just finished 'Herself' by Leslie Carroll - SO fun and SUCH a quick read. I started it this afternoon. If anyone is into cute romantic comedies, check it out.

My sister was just talking about that book today! I'll have to check it out!

the undead series by mary janice davidson is great! Romantic comedy .. with a vampire queen who is addicted to shopping and shoes. It's soo funny..and they are all quick reads.. theres about 6 books in the series i think. The first book was undead and unwed!!!! i def. recommend it!!

I love paranormal romance books..lol.. so i have a lot of those to recommend.. but they are pretty much romantic comedies with a twist.

let's see..

The girlfriend curse was cute...
For better or for hearse by laura durham is about a wedding planner who solves mysteries.. def. cute quick and fun..

Married for a month by susan mallery

Dead end Dating by kimberly rave...

all good.. i have tons more if ya need any..lol

i have more: ( and yes, ive read all of them)

all of the 'shopaholic' books
sisters
summer sisters
the color of water
everything changes
black and blue
where the heart is

there is a book called something blue and another called something borrowed...though ya might be interested...

Bleachy Haired, Honky B***** by Hollis Gillespie.... really hysterical. I actually laughed out loud reading it at work.

Sorry, I got nothing. The last quick book I read was 'The Other Boleyn Girl' which was good, but not a romantic comedy, lol.

---

omg!! was that not such a GREAT book?!?! one of my favorites. If you like that u should read 'the birth of venus' I was Anne Boleyn for halloween the yr before last

Anything by Jodi Picoult. I just finished Nineteen Minutes a few weeks ago.. page turner it was! It was about a school shooting... VERY GOOD!

Ninetenn Minutes

I'm in the middle of the Slightly Series, all by Wendy Markham. There's Slightly Single, Slightly Settled and Slightly Engaged and Slightly Married. I call books like these Candy... good and yummy and gone in seconds...

Slightly Single

Slightly Settled

Slightly Engaged

Slightly Married

Any Jane Green book is good. She's a British author and my faves are Jemima J. and The Other Woman (about an evil MIL!).

Jemima J

The Other Woman

Kate White writes some decent stuff. They're mostly chicky murder mysteries. Again.. candy!

Enjoy Bon!!

I was waiting for you to post! I know you're a bookworm and would have some great recs!

Question for you - the Slightly series....is it the same character? Would I need to start with slightly single?

xo

Might sound silly but i'm reading:

Everything I Needed to Know About Being a Girl I Learned from Judy Blume

I'm getting a kick outta it since I can sooooooo relate.

Yes same character... to be honest, when I say I'm in the middle of that series, that means I'm just about to start the 2nd book () LOL! From the way book 1 started, I would say you may need to start with that one and work your way thru.

Book worm I am... and of course, I'll always recommend Harry Potter!!!!

I second this - I read Something Borrowed and it was surprisingly good.

omg i do too! but hey why not?? i hate buying books bc u read it once and then what?? so instead i borrow it from the library for free haha

---

I know!! Might as well. I'm poor enough as it is anyway! Need to cut corners somewhere!!!

---

I totally go to the library. IN FACT, I am going to walk to the one near me in a few minutes so I can take out some books on British Columbia for my honeymoon!!!

***My recommendation for a good beach book: anything by Janet Evanovich. She writes a series about a woman who is a bounty hunter, and not a very good one, and she's very funny! You don't need to read any of them in succession, either.
