One of the genres I explored last year was Chick lit. One of the books I started (and actually finished) was Confessions of a Shopaholic. I’m not exactly sure what emotions Chick Lit is suppose to engender but the female in this book is so utterly idiotic when it comes to finances/self-control that it left me feeling paniced. In the various chick lit books I’ve sampled, all the heroines are obsessed with clothing.

A couple of weeks ago I was looking up information about one of my current favorite authors, Sheila Viehl*, and discovered that she has a blog. Today I read this post. In it she discusses fashion and chick lit shoes. It’s hilarious.

* My favorites are the books she writes under the name S.L. Viehl.
