Hello Chick Lit Fans!

Congratulations on surviving the week!

Here are two of the chick lit related stories floating around the Web this week:

First, there’s this story in Publisher’s Weekly about defining chick lit, in which Barbara Vey actually asked people on the street for their definition of the genre.

Then, I came across this article about being a book snob. Warning: the article includes the term ‘”downmarket” genre fiction’. Hmm.

Also, don’t forget to check out all the wonderful posts over at International Chick Lit Month!

Have a great weekend.
