Book Description:
Ashley Stockingdale has a respectable (read: boring) job in Silicon Valley as a patent attorney. Given that the single men outnumber the women 2 to 1, Ashley can't help but wonder why a cute, eligible, Christian girl sits home most weekends. So Ashley resolves to go for it! The question is, what should she go for? Ultimately, Ashley finds that what a girl wants and what a girl needs aren't always the same thing.
My review (written in 2004--I've come a long way, baby!)
NOTE: This was the 1st book review I EVER wrote.
This is one of the most hysterical and witty stories from the female perspective that I've had the pleasure of enjoying. I am now a chick lit fan (this is my first experience with the genre) so now I will have to buy and read every book about Ashley Stockingdale. I feel like I KNOW her, like she's a friend, because the author does such a good job of making her seem like a real person. The romance piece was also very enticing and I was dying to know what she planned to do. I hope this series goes on and on.
What a Girl Wants was published by Thomas Nelson and is being reissued in 2007 with a new cover!

Please add me to the list for the drawing forest_rose[at]yahoo[dot]com Sounds like a fun light read. Always need a few of those peppered in between the heavier stories. And by light I don't mean light on the message side or depth just a fun, lighthearted plot as opposed to heavier, darker plots that some novels have.
I love both but there are times when one or the other is more appealing.
