Chick lit is often synonymous with the terms beach read or romantic comedy. I would define it as women's fiction that is light, easy reading with a happy ending. This doesn't mean there isn't suspense or plot twists, etc. It just means that you won't find yourself immersed in a box of Kleenex at the end and you'll likely get at least a couple of laughs along the way. It is actually a searchable term on Amazon, although the results are not always 100% reliable because it is based on reader tagging. Any romantic comedy movie that is based on a book would be considered chick lit, as an example.
