Thank you for the recommendations, my wishlist is growing! Some series also have the "chick lit" label attached, but I will ignore it and judge for myself.
I don't really know what "chick lit" is either. It is defined on wikipedia as "genre fiction which addresses issues of modern womanhood, often humorously and lightheartedly". I hardly think a story based in the 1930s could be classified as addressing "modern womanhood". I don't think Stephanie Plum addresses womanhood, it is just humourous mystery. Judging from the cartoony book covers of the popular books in this genre, the stories may revolve around shopping, fashion or food, in which case they will lose my interest quickly.
