Chick lit author recommendation

If you're looking for a new chick lit author who spins a good tale, definitely check out Emilly Giffin who has written several books, most of which I've really enjoyed.

And, if you're new to her work, be sure to start with "Something Borrowed" as her next book, "Something Blue" builds upon things that occur in the first novel.

The reason I'm giving this quick plug is because I saw a tweet from Giffin today giving fans a sneak peek at the movie poster for "Something Borrowed", which will star Kate Hudson, Ginnifer Goodwin and John Krasinski. Included below is info on the release but...only click-through if you've already read both books to avoid spoilers. As is typical for film adaptions, it sounds like there has been some editing (perhaps even merging the two books into one film?) however I'm looking forward to it nonetheless and, having read and liked the books, think the casting, overall, is spot-on. My only change may have been subbing Rachel McAdams for Goodwin's role.
