Since joining the DC Chick Lit Book Club, I have noticed that I talk about a lot of books. While the DC Chick Lit Book Club reintroduced me to my love of books, I have to be honest, I no longer attend. The reason I joined was to meet new people.

Well, I think I have accomplished that goal. I am very thankful that I have made a great group of girlfriends in DC. I am also thankful to this book club and I guess to my work commute... for reintroducing me to the joy of reading. Like many of you, I tend to go through phases with reading. Thankfully, my work commute has created an easy 30 minutes a day for me to read whatever I please. It takes me about a month to finish a book, but at least I am reading daily!!

Most of the novels I choose tend to fall into the Chick Lit category, I promise to occasionally throw in a book of more intellectual content. Click on the links below to read my reviews of the following books:
