Chick lit is really kind of awesome. Not because it's light and frothy, although it often is, but because reading good chick lit is like having a conversation with a good girlfriend. You get insight into another woman, or many of them, and that's kind of nice. Before you pass off chick lit as something reserved solely for the beach or the plane, pick up one of these books and give it a deeper read.

Of course! This is the very definition of chick lit! I think you'll love Bridget more in the written form. Follow it up with the sequel … and the latest book if you're brave. I'm so not.

Jane Green has many phenomenal books under her belt, but Jemima J is my absolute favorite. JJ finds her happy balance in this book, and she does so with wit, honesty, and vulnerability. She might inspire you to do the same.

I had to include this one, too, because it describes three women at different stages of their lives, all dealing with babies in some way. If you're a thirtysomething, it'll get you.

The Ya-Yas have their own series now, too, if you count Little Altars Everywhere as the first. Even if you don't, Rebecca Wells has a voice. She has things to say and stories to share and I don't think you should miss them.

I haven't finished this one yet. I'm almost afraid to. I simultaneously don't want it to end and don't want to get to the end.

Notting Hell, Shire Hell, and Fresh Hell. You need to read all three. You're welcome.

Told you! To be honest, though, I initially only picked up this book because of the title.

Again, maybe not really chick lit, but everyone needs more Barbara Kingsolver in their lives.
