Who doesn’t enjoy an occasional reading of a feel-good romance? So, if you in the mood for ‘chick-lit” — check out the latest from romance novelist Catherine Alliot. It promises to deliver a story similar to all others she has written. You know — a story of an improbable love affair that somehow works out in the end — with passages like the following:

“They gazed at one another … his black eyes met hers and lit up with pleasure,” her new novel, “Falling for Clooney,” Source : CBS news

So far so good — right? Except for a detail — Clooney is a rooster. So needless to say, think of this book as more like 50 shades of eggshells :).

Thanks for reading!
