Are those Uggs as well under the sloppy sweats? That won't bring in any boys I don't think.

]]> <![CDATA[Isla Fisher: In Costume And Unimpressed]]> I too, indulge in a little chick lit when I have no interest in dealing with reality. They're like a vacation for the brain. Words with no substance and fashion references. Fun!

But my question about this picutre, is that I read the shopaholic books and I don't recall her ever dressing like an idiot with massive amounts of neon tulle. Why must Patricia Fields put her stamp of ugly obnoxiousness on everything?

Fuck book snobbery.

]]> <![CDATA[Isla Fisher: In Costume And Unimpressed]]> Okay. You were right. Nicholas Sparks sucks. I got about two chapters in and then gave up. The book was all about a science journalist from New York who makes a living discrediting paranormal phenomena. He ends up in a small southern town, where I assume (based on what happened up to the point at which I stopped reading) he falls in love with the town librarian, and comes to believe in some kind of psychic-ness, or something.

It was like reading an Ashley Judd movie.

]]> <![CDATA[Isla Fisher: In Costume And Unimpressed]]> @aabbbiee: I agree whole-heartedly. The Shopaholic books make me go, 'aww, I'm normal'.

I'm so excited Isla Fisher is in the movie. She's hilarious.

]]> <![CDATA[Isla Fisher: In Costume And Unimpressed]]> I liked the Shopaholic books for this reason: they always made me feel better about my spending choices.

]]> <![CDATA[Isla Fisher: In Costume And Unimpressed]]> @misssgolightly: I'm the only one of my friends who absolutely hates this series. HATES. There's not a whole lot of books that make me stabby* - I've only read the first, and any time I see anything about these, I'm like, "gah! Stupid unfunny, trying-to-be-Bridget-Jones lameass knockoff!" It pains me that the super cute Isla Fisher is taking part in this.

*Jane Austen's "Emma" - I'm looking at you.

]]> <![CDATA[Isla Fisher: In Costume And Unimpressed]]> @seattleinthecity: I'm a huge sucker for romance novels, especially the historical and/or angsty vampire type. Yes, I know they will never win the Booker Prize. No, I don't care. I read for escapist fun.

Also, the last time I read a Booker-nominated book, I threw it at the wall.

]]> <![CDATA[Isla Fisher: In Costume And Unimpressed]]> OH snap. I know I'm kinda late on this, but they're actually making a movie about the Shopaholic books?! Like, yay. My kid sister reads these, and while I have never even picked one of them up, I can say that the cover alone makes it appear as though it's composed of thoughtless and pointless drivel.

Shirl

]]> <![CDATA[Isla Fisher: In Costume And Unimpressed]]> @misssgolightly: I agree, I've never been fond of chic - lit either, and whenever I'm in B&N, I'll walk on by if I happen to see any. Romance novels are something that I really can't stomach either. My grandmother has been trying fruitlessly for quite a while to get me into it, but I won't budge.
If I do romance, I prefer to stick with Jane Austen. As far as I'm concerned, Jane is the one who did the best - no one can ever compare.
Other than that I can usually be found nosing around in the New Age section looking for books on paranormal phenomena (I'm reading Entangled Minds by Dean Radin), or something along those lines.

If I were Isla Fisher, you can bet that I would making hell for the person that put me in that gawd awful costume.

I haven't started it yet. Will report back.

]]> <![CDATA[Isla Fisher: In Costume And Unimpressed]]> @misssgolightly: I like them for when I am on vacation at the beach and my brain wants to take a break. They are good escapist novels.

PS - Most of them are terrible but Bridget Jones is a hilarious book.

seattleinthecity

]]> <![CDATA[Isla Fisher: In Costume And Unimpressed]]> @misssgolightly: Amen! I tried to give chick-lit a chance. Every single time they failed me and I spent $14 on unreadable crap (Thank you Jesus for Borders Rewards- at least I get coupons). That "detail everything I am wearing and where I bought it" trend- I swear it is no different than those "Anatomy of a Crime" shows on the channels above 73 on cable. I find anything that breaks down something I DON'T care about in the first place - pedantic and boring.

Like the one of Gia, the heroin addicted model from the 70's, and Janice Dickinson's autobiograpies. I just can't stomach the "Ohmahgadz I just got the new Prada bag" books. And don't even get me started on Nicholas Sparks. But hey, whatever floats your boat.

But I will say that I have painted chick lit with the same brush and almost missed the fun that is/are the Marian Keyes books. I started with Sushi for Beginners and binged out on all of them.

]]> <![CDATA[Isla Fisher: In Costume And Unimpressed]]> @socalsnarkstress: @MissPeacock: They're not. She was wearing them when they were taping. I think they were shooting from the waist up today. And they're shooting in front of the Asprey store, which has redone its windows to be all dresses instead of jewelry and housewares. It's in between the YSL and Sonia Rykiel stores, so they may be in the shot too.

]]> <![CDATA[Isla Fisher: In Costume And Unimpressed]]> @misssgolightly: I agree. I had several friends recommend them to me. And I want to say also that I hate literary snobbery - - if it floats your boat, go ahead. But I could NOT handle any of the Shopaholic series because I kept wanting to wring her shallow neck.
