Yesterday I had the opportunity of sharing my review for Anna Lefler’s first non-fiction book, The Chicktionary. It’s an absolute riot and certainly one I’d recommend to women everywhere, no matter how in-the-know you think you may be.

Thankfully for Chick Lit Reviews and News readers the publisher of The Chicktionary has provided one copy for giveaway here on the site in conjunction with TLC Book Tours! Thank you! One Chick Lit Reviews and News reader will win the giveaway that will close on Sunday the 4th of December. This one is open to US/Canada residents only with only one entry per household allowed. Good luck!

The CHICKtionary is a humorous dictionary of the words and phrases women use—and what they really mean when they use them. The book corrals more than 450 terms, including some you know (uterus) and some you might not (flexting), and defines each from the perspective of a typical contemporary woman—a woman who avoids accidental pageant hair, is frenemies with her robotic vacuum and only occasionally relies on her high-waisted jeans to hold up her strapless bra.

While The CHICKtionary is obviously comedic, it also pays homage to the unique and ever-evolving way in which women communicate about relationships, life, fashion, self-identity and more. The CHICKtionary fills the niche of being the thinking woman’s book that both celebrates and skewers the realities of womanhood through the lens of the words and phrases used to describe the experience.

So whether you are dealing with a Residual Girlfriend, diagnose yourself with a bad case of Basset Knees, or need to go on a Briet, you’ll be prepared for all that comes your way. At the very least, this book will serve as a delightful reminder that everyone has a skeleton in her closet—right next to her fat pants.

Can’t wait for the giveaway to end? (I don’t blame you!)
