Chick lit:
Eileen Cook: "Unpredictable"
I got it for free, it was a Rewards Dollars special on Books on Board (not anymore though). It's a very funny and light-hearted novel about a woman who tries to get her boyfriend back. By the way, I'm usually not into chick lit.
Not chick lit:
Richard Paul Evans: "Finding Noel"
A nice and short Christmas story, if I remember correctly. The protagonist could have been a bit more active, but it's still a nice story.
Young adult fiction:
Jennifer Ziegler: "Alpha Dog" and "How Not to Be Popular". Humorous and about believing in oneself.
Sarah Dessen: "Lock and Key" and "Just Listen". Not as light-hearted as the other books I've recommended, but still quick and nice reads. "Lock and Key" is about a girl who has been abandoned by her mother and starts to live with her older sister. Now she needs to learn to open up and trust other people again. "Just Listen" on the other hand describes the struggle of a girl who has been rejected by her friends at school. She meets a boy who's rumoured to be a violent guy, but strangely he's listening to music all the time without talking to other people.
