If you love chick lit or want to start reading chick lit, then Jane Green books should be in your collection. In my opinion, she is one of the best chick lit authors in the market today. Admittedly, her books always involve a love story. But, unlike other authors, it’s never just about a girl who meets a boy, who she doesn’t like, but falls in love with him nonetheless, and they get together in the end and live happily ever after. Her books always tries to explore different issues of love stories, from the good to the bad to unavoidable.

Let’s explore some of her books.

1. Jemima J

Jemima J is about very large British lady, who finally decides to conquer her weight and become a new girl. Jemima Jones is a twenty-something single British gal who always has been heavy. One day, she decides to take charge of her life and win the war with her weight. She enrolls in the gym and she cuts back on her food and pretty soon, she has dropped more than a hundred pounds to become a slimmer girl not a lot of people recognize. She starts to reinvent herself but realizes that things are never always what they seem.

2. Babyville

Babyville is the story of three completely different ladies who have one problem in common: babies. Julia wants a baby with her boyfriend but could learn to live without the boyfriend. Maeve doesn’t want babies but suddenly finds herself pregnant after one moment of passion. And Samantha has both the husband and the baby but finds herself resenting every moment of it. How will they cope now?

3. The Other Woman

Ellie and Dan are getting married. Everything is fine until their situation becomes a little overcrowded when Dan’s mother starts taking over everything about their relationship, starting from the wedding to their marriage to taking care of their son. Things take a turn for their worse when tragedy strikes. Now Ellie and her mother-in-law must settle matters once and for all and decide who the two people in the marriage are going to be.

These are just some of the books and issues that Jane Green tackles in her books. It’s light but every woman relates to it. And even if you can’t, Jane Green writes in a very light tone that makes you feel that you know the stories she’s been writing.

So, if you haven’t done it yet, grab a copy of any Jane Green book. It’s just one of those books that you will love to read over and over again.
