looking for some book recommendations

I just finished the book club book, which was a little heavy. I'm looking for something light, a little fluffier. Any recs? I like to line up 2-3 at a time and try to go for lighter, chick lit then something with drama or historical fiction, so I'll take anything.

Re: looking for some book recommendations

  • If you read/liked Wicked, you should try "Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister" from the same author (Gregory something). I loved that story.

  • If you like fantasy at all there's a book called Graceling by Kristin Cashore that I really loved. I listened to it on audiobook. It's YA but not vampire stuff (although I love a trashy YA vampire novel). There's also a prequel called Fire that I like even more than the first that I'm currently listening to. I recommend reading Graceling first though.

  • I second Graceling. Also, I just read a YA novel called Matched which was pretty good. It's new though, so I had to wait a little while to get it from the library.

    I reccomend these to everyone, but I love the Odd Thomas series. I listened to them on Audiobook and they are wonderful. They are mystery/supernatural thriller-ish

  • I'm looking for some recs too!  I was thinking about starting the Pretty Little Liars YA series.  I got into the show, so I'm curious about the books.  Has anyone read them?

  • Orange is the New Black was FASCINATING.  Memoir about an upperish middle class college graduate with a career and a fiance who spends a year in federal prison after a conviction for a ten-year-old drug trafficking offense she was involved in for two hot seconds after college graduation.  Very light read for a memoir.

    Anything by Jen Lancaster.

    Sookie Stackhouse series by Charlaine Harris

    Shiver by Maggie Stiefaver (YA)

    Firefly Lane by Kristin Hannah

    The Summerhouse by Jude Deveraux

    The Luxe series by Anna Godbersen

    All very fluffy.  I can't remember if you have read any, so sorry for any repeats!

  • I meant to put orange is the new black on my holds after Jen Lancaster put it on her blog, but forgot! Def. going to get that one.

    Thanks for all the other recs, pp's! Will look into all of them!

  • Oh, I forgot The Luxe series. I picked up the first one at a Library sale and zoomed through all four. Very good, very fluffy.

  • Not fluffy but not too heavy either. I'm currently re-reading the Circle Series by Ted Dekker. It's soooo good. Sci-fi with religious undertones but not overly so otherwise I couldn't read it. It's a super suspenseful, good story.

  • I still love Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum series.

    I looooooove Ted Dekker!  This is one of my favorite series.

    Im reading "Aphrodite's Kiss"  by Julie Kenner right now.  Just the right amount of light, fluffy, trash.  My kind of book right now!  Plus, its only .99 on your Kindle if you have one.
