As we move from the March winds and into April showers, we cannot help but think of nature as the earth is reborn. There are cultivated flower boxes and well kept lawns emerging around us, but in other places, we find the wilds, where Mother Nature flourishes. With those thoughts, we are thrilled to bring […]
I managed to get through my heavy bridesmaid duty years unscathed. My brides were very laid back, chose gowns that flattered my figure, and one of them even asked me not to plan a bridal shower because she found them annoying. I was lucky.
For those who aren’t or weren’t quite as fortunate as me, Liz […]
What better to talk about on Allthingsgirl.com than the relationships among women? Like so many women my age, I read love stories and thrillers and historical fiction and even fantasy (love the big good/evil epic–have since I was a teenager), but what I love most is a story about women. Our lives, our […]
If you are a long-time reader of All Things Girl, the name “Patricia Wellingham-Jones” will certainly ring a bell. Her amazing poems have graced our pages every issue for as long as I can remember. Patricia is a breast-cancer survivor and her poetry about the process of her diagnosis and treatment were collected into Don’t […]
I‘m currently reading The Book of Fate by Brad Meltzer. It’s an intriguing tale, beginning with an assassination attempt of The President of the United States.

Lynn Biederman is the co-author of Unraveling, which was reviewed in our July, 2008 issue. She recently took a few moments to jot down some of her thoughts for us, and here’s what she had to say:

Music evokes emotions and memories. It reflects our mood and can change how we’re feeling. It can also change how we behave. Every group of young people will have a form of music that represents them and often this stays with them for the rest of their lives. Even when tastes change, play again the […]
So the other evening I was scratching around my less-than-impressive DVD collection when I spotted Bridget Jones’ Diary. I hadn’t watched it in ages and so decided to slip it into the player, before launching myself under my duvet (it’s winter where I live) - settling in for a chick flick night. And what a […]
The illustrious author of Miss Spitfire: Reaching Helen Keller, Sarah Miller, has created a new and exciting reading challenge called The Disney Literature Challenge .

I recently read an advance copy of Dream Girl, the new YA novel from Lauren Mechling, who is the co-author of the 10th Grade Social Climber novels. It’s about Claire Voyante, high school student, daughter of leftover hippie intellectual parents, and seer of visions, though the latter seems to be linked to a special cameo […]

I didn’t choose this book because the Olympics Games are coming to China, it was a present to me from my lovely son and his family. It is a story of a young female detective, Mei Wang, seemingly searching for an ancient and valuable artefact.
Interwoven is Mei’s haunting family history, which as the tale unfolds, […]
Oh ladies, wasn’t it fabulous? The end of May saw women from all over the world reaching for a Cosmo and gathering their gal pals as our favourite girls from New York graced the Big Screen for a long over-due catch-up. Yup, I’m referring to the premiere of Sex and the City – one of […]
