I am off to the libary on monday.
I dont like anything too heavy going to read as i read to relax so possibly lighthearted fiction.

Or some PG Wodehouse if that floats your boat

Watching with interest as well.

I like Jennifer Weiner and Liza Palmer when I want something lighthearted and throwaway. I read Little Earthquakes and Conversations with the Fat Girl when I was stuck in hospital recently.

I loved "the historian" by kristina Kostova - its not really lighthearted, defo not chick lit. Its a bit like the da vinci code, but much better written. It has romance, self discovery, beautiful countries - and of course VAMPIRES!

Will watch this thread with interest for other suggestions - im on a reading block just now, been stuck in victorian novels for a while, need something more cheerful, but i can't do chick lit.
