Book Reviews of It's a Chick Thing: Celebrating the Wild Side of Women's Friendship

Book Review: Chicks with a twist of lime, please
Summary: 5 Stars

Funny (laugh out loud by yourself kind of funny), touching (get choked up and weepy by yourself kind of touching) and an altogether great read about how rewarding and enduring friendships between women really are. "Chicks" is a nostalgic, feisty, serious, emotional, playful & intelligent read--a great tribute to our sisterhood. Story format is a great match to most women's almost non-existent personal time because you actually can finish one (even TWO!!) stories in the privacy of your closet before the children, husband, mother, boss, phone etc. find you . . . RUN, do not walk, to get this one.

Summary of It's a Chick Thing: Celebrating the Wild Side of Women's Friendship

A fabulously fun collection of spirited stories, scintillating sidebars, and oh-so-quotable quips, It's a Chick Thing pays homage to the special and unique times that strengthen the bonds of female friendships---the antics, escapades, and thrill seeking---as well as the loyalty, sisterly support, and irrepressible humor.

Read about Dolly Parton's "biker chick" escapades with her girlfriend gang, Hell's Belles; Diana and Fergie's hilarious night on the town during Prince Andrew's bachelor party; and the time Patsy Cline and Loretta Lynn faced down the Coal Miner's Daughter's detractors. Meet women like Cirque du Chien, a pack of party-loving Francophiles who dress up like French poodles; La Bella Mafia, self-proclaimed divas who right wrongs and overdress for every occasion; and a bevy of sisters and friends who take over the backyard playhouse for parties and girl talk. Full of irreverent fun, candid observations, and shameless merrymaking, It's a Chick Thing is the perfect gift for each and every one of your best gal pals. Chickcentric lists include "Chicks Who Rock," "Chick Reads," "Chick Flicks," and "Chick Cliques." "Wonderful - a must read for all women of substance!" - Jill Conner Browne, author of The Sweet Potato Queens' Book of Love"Smart. Sassy. Tons of Fun. It's a Chick Thing is my new best friend," says Cameron Tuttle, author of The Bad Girl's Guide to the Open Road.
