The Girls from the Revolutionary Cantina - M. Padilla

This is the symbol for Chick Lit Books , I was trying to come up with the perfect symbol and boy, was it hard . So I thought the best way to symbolise chick-lit genre was to have a picture of a collection of Chick-Lit books.

Synopsis : The Girls from the Revolutionary Cantina - M.Padilla- June 2010

Padilla’s compulsively readable novel is centered around a group of Mexican American friends living in California’s San Fernando Valley. The practical member of the group, Julia Juarez, is concentrating on her job as a sales rep at a security firm and trying not to get distracted by her dashing coworker, Ilario. When Ilario and Julia’s best friend, Ime, hit it off at a party, Julia is crushed but steps aside when she sees how serious Ime is about Ilario. But when her working relationship with Ilario turns hostile, Julia starts to worry about the future of her career. Her friends’ lives are equally tumultuous: mousy Nina is preparing to marry a man she’s not sure she loves, wild-child Concepcion has developed a fixation on a handsome actor wanted for the murder of his wife, and Marta, owner of the evolutionary Cantina, is drawn into a wacky plot launched by Concepcion. Readers will find these gals great company, and Padilla’s second outing is a rollicking good ride with plenty of flare and heart.
