Title: What A Girl Wants Authors: Kristin Billerbeck type of book: Contemporary Women's Fiction / Inspirational call number: FIC

This book is strong in character and story.

Summary:
This inspirational chick lit novel has just the right balance of Christian influence and traditional chick lit humor, self discovery, and romance. Ashley is a patent attorney working in Silicon Valley and is thoroughly bored with both her job and nonexistent social life. She is in a state of denial and wonder as to why a good looking single Christian girl can never find a date let alone a husband. Also, she is becoming increasingly discontented with her church singles group, her love of karaoke, Star Trek, and watching the Matrix far too many times.

I would recommend this book!

Why?
Ashley decides she needs to begin taking some big risks in her social life. So she sets out to win the affections of a handsome doctor . . . or is it her close geek engineer friend Seth? Ashley's self discovery and learning are endearing, her faith in God is inspiring (without being heavy-handed), and the humorous situations she gets herself into are hilarious.

Other suggested reading:

She's Out of Control, also by Kristen Billerbeck (the sequel)
