I've been getting a lot of reading done, mostly because of time spent on airplanes. I borrowed my girlfriend's copy of "Kissing in Manhattan" and managed to read the whole thing in one day... Not because it's an easy book (though it is a relatively fast read), but, rather, because I spent 10 hours in airplanes or waiting for airplanes.
The book is sort of chick lit meets brainy contemporary fiction. It's a collection of short stories which become more and more interspersed as the book goes on, until really it's a novel. So it's a little different than most reading experiences. For some reason I don't feel like getting into it in detail. I'm tired today from too much being sick on my vacation. Perhaps I'll revise this entry later to give more opinion. But for now: good book, quick read, smart and surreal.
"Chick Lit"... That's an amusing extension of the whole "chick flick" meme. So let's see, we have:
Chick Lit - example: Bridget Jones
Chick Flick - example: any Hugh Grant movie
Chick Music - example: Sarah McLachlan
Chick Music needs a better moniker.
The only thing I can think of is how sometimes a rock music refrain is called a guitar lick, so possibly "Chick Lick" but that has entirely different connotations. I can't come up for a more clever "Chick Music" term. How about a "Her Hymn"? Ha ha ha.
Maybe you can just emphasize the last syllable.
