Posts: 2390 (11/07/2009 6:06 PM) Reply Quote More Recent Posts	I've been trying to find a new series or at least a new author... I loooove the "Shopaholic" series and I really enjoyed the books "Something Borrowed" "Something Blue" "Baby Proof" and "Love the One Your With". Anything that is similar to those types of books would be great!

I also really liked "The Memory Keeper's Daughter" by Kim Edwards. My faaaavorite book is "She's Come Undone" by Wally Lamb. If you haven't read it, you definitely should!

Each book focuses on a different sister's story but they all make appearances in each and you can sort of check in on how the others are doing. In order (so far) the books are: -Watermelon -Rachel's Holidy -Angels -Anybody Out There Keyes still has one more sister to write a book about and I've heard that she plans to write one about the mother as well. Her other books are all good but if you want a series these are a good start.

You'll also probably like the "Accidental" ones by Rowan Coleman. Have you read Sammy's Hill and Sammy's House by Kristin Gore? Try Meg Cabot's Queen of Babble series, too.

I'll check that out! And no I saw the movie for "P.S I Love You" and I was not a fan Thanks so much guys!

I think "Anybody Out There?" was the first one I read and my favorite of hers. Have you read "Size 12 is Not Fat" by Meg Cabot? It is a series of three books and is so cute and funny!

"Size 12 is Not Fat" sounds cute I just looked it up. Have any of you read "Chasing Harry Winston"? I was wondering if that was as good as "The Devil Wears Prada" which is another book that I loved!

I LOVE books that are series, I hate giving up characters, so I like Rachel Gibsons books, four are all linked together.
