There it is, my next Marian Keyes fix: I found Angels in the public library this morning. I went there for Ibiza travel guides because I’ll be going there for a week in October. You have no idea how much I am looking forward to this week, I really need a holiday …

Chick Lit at CNN.com

A couple of days ago, CNN had a story on chick lit emphasising that chick lit is more than pure entertainment (not that there would be anything wrong with good entertainment, mind).

Maybe it’s just that my sensors are extra-sensible sinceI want to write chick lit in November, but I seem to discover all sorts of genre-related stuff at the moment. Also, I’m buying every chick lit title on display in my local Oxfam bookstore. It is important that you know the standards of your genre, after all.

Read Rachel’s Holiday over the weekend. Loved it.

I was never tempted by Marian Keyes before, but now I want to read the rest of her stuff.
