Chick lit is such bullsh**

Whenever I read any of those books known as chick lit, I can't help but think how ridiculous it all is. Seriously -- these "heroines" with their career issues and their worries about how to get the guy. Interestingly, there seems to be a pattern -- take The Nanny Diaries and Confessions of a Shopaholic, for example -- of the heroines losing their jobs (not that they wanted them, anyway) but hooking up with their love interest.

I mean, come on. That's not realistic. Where are the girls who get screwed over by their boyfriends? The girls who pursue their careers because they like their independence more than they like boys?

Moreover, where are the girls who aren't willing to settle for just one guy? Where are all the female players?

Just for once, I want to see a chick lit novel that shows how it really is.
