Going Bridal: How to Get Married Without Losing Your Mind by Li Robbins Perhaps if yours truly had known of this book when I first started planning a wedding, I wouldn't have eloped. But there is still hope for you to have a wedding without going postal, er, I mean, crazy! Li Robbins covers all the bases here, from dealing with the mother of the bride (that would be your mother even though she has been unrecognizable to you since you got engaged) to dealing with a frugal fiance. Going Bridal: How to Get Married Without Losing Your Mind Even God Is Single, So Stop Giving Me A Hard Time by Karen Salmansohn Why aren�t you married? We�ve all heard that question before. And even if you�re perfectly content being single � and there are plenty of reasons to be � it�s just grating to be asked. Well, this sassy little book gives you 26 feisty comebacks to that annoying little question, as well as a philosophy on why it�s better to hold out for a soul mate instead of settling for a cell mate. Even God Is Single, So Stop Giving Me A Hard Time The Girl's Guide to Traveling Solo by Deanna G. Wolff Have you been putting off that dream vacation because you don�t have a traveling companion? What are you waiting for? You don�t need anyone but you - and maybe a little inspiration from adventurous solo traveler, Deanna Wolff. In this fun little book Deanna shares with us, in great detail, her recent trip to dreamy Italy. The Girl's Guide to Traveling Solo by Deanna G. Wolff Bridget Jones's Diary by Helen Fielding This is a fun read that will keep you laughing all the way through. It stars Bridget, a 30 something singleton who begins each day�s diary entry with her weight, number of cigarettes smoked and drinks consumed. The book inspired a new wave of chicklit, so you know it must be good. And, of course, the story was made into a movie with Bridget (well, technically Rene Z.) nominated for an Oscar. Don�t particularly recommend the movie, but the book gets kudos with us. Bridget Jones's Diary The Girls' Guide to Hunting and Fishing by Melissa Bank Here�s a bit of chick lit that you may have missed a few years back. It�s the story of Jane, an everyday girlfriend, who�s trying to figure out life. Bewildered by love and constantly self-doubting, Jane takes us through her humorous romantic and work-related trials and tribulations. But when she almost loses the love of her life playing it cool by The Rules, she finally learns what it really takes to win her man�s heart. This is a smart book with a bit more substance than let�s say, Bridget Jones (though we did enjoy that one too). Thanks to Hdar for dropping a line and reminding us about this great read.
