Re: what are some fun, but not painfully stupid chick lit books for vacation?
I just read Tiger in the Kitchen by Cheryl Tan. It was okay - not really chick-lit, but a nice fast read (memoir about learning her family's recipes.)
The Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich.
I've just started reading another series by Charlaine Harris (the woman that writes the True Blood/Sookie Stackhouse books) - Aurora Teagarden series. They're murder mysteries. Edited to say I'm reading the third book now, and I've yet to see a vampire, werewolf, or mindreader if that's something that you don't like reading about.
I'm not a huge Nicholas Sparks fan, but I think they make good vacation reads.
I just read Lovely Bones. It was a good, fast read. I also read Bossypants. It was funny, if you haven't read it yet.
I was just going to recommend Bossypants also. I finished it up this morning and found it to be an easy read with lots of funny parts that I found myself laughing out loud too while obtaining looks and glares from people around me who had no clue why I was laughing. I'm a big Tina Fey fan. She has a way with words.
Nicholas Sparks makes me stabby.
My recommendations can be found here, but to summarize: I like Jane Green, Kristin Hannah (though hers tend to be tear-jerkers), most of Nora Robets' stuff (her Brides Quartet is my favorite in recent years, but I liked her older stuff more), Laura Kleypas and Barbara O'Neal.
