Favorite Chick Lit?  

Do you like Chick Lit? What are some of your favorite "beach reads" (as some seem to call it)? Do you prefer American or British Chick Lit books?

For those who are unaware of this genre, it's defined by Wikipedia as being "a term used to denote genre fiction within women's fiction written for and marketed to young women, especially single, working women in their twenties and thirties. The genre sells well, with chick lit titles topping bestseller lists and the creation of imprints devoted entirely to chick lit. It generally deals with the issues of modern women humorously and lightheartedly" (Wiki).

A lot of people seem to bash chick lit as being meaningless, and not having any intellectual vigor - but I personally like chick lit, and it's not because I'm illiterate in any way, but because a lot of them are cute and easy to read, and don't require much to think about.

I have to say, at one point in my life (in high school) I would read nothing but SERIOUS books - American classics, memoirs, non-fiction political books, etc - and I always hated the idea of these "girly" and "shallow" books - but I have to say, now, they're a good change from the ordinary.

Some of my "faves" have to be the Devil Wears Prada and anything by Sophie Kinsella.

Which chick lit books are your favorite? Who has been your favorite author so far?
If you don't like chick lit, give me your argument as to why you don't.

Thanks in advance!
