Hello Digital Book Today readers. The Book Buzz segment today features The Life List (The List Triology) by Chrissy Anderson. Fans of Chick Lit have greatly enjoy her book? How much have they enjoyed it? How about a reader rating of 4.9 stars on 27 reviews! From Chrissy’s website: It took a chance encounter with a young stranger at a bar to realize my life list was bullshit. But did I have the courage to correct the mistakes of my past? Was I strong enough to defy the wishes of everyone around me and become the woman I was meant to be?
 
You can find the answers to these questions in The Life List. I’m Chrissy Anderson and this is my story through my life choices - some good, some stupid, some sleazy. Sure, I’ve made some big mistakes. But, I learned from them and came out the other end in a pretty damn good place. Women of all kinds - twenty-somethings, housewives and superwomen wanna-bes- will all be able to relate to the same pressures I felt of constructing the ideal life, only to fall short. And I suspect there will be a lot of exhaling going on as those women read The Life List. I certainly don’t expect everyone to agree with my decisions, but all will pause as they follow along on my journey to ask, “What would I do if I were her?”
 
If you are a fan of the Chick Lit genre than we are sure that The Life List will not disappoint.
“Great story of self-discovery that will make you laugh and cry.” ~ V. Espinosa, Amazon Reviews
 
“Outstanding read! Funny, inspiring, great character development. Chrissy has some elements of every woman and her story is real and interesting. I didn’t know whether I loved her, hated her, or just knew I had too much in common with her. The love triangle is sexy and engaging. Her journey is one many of us have gone through. Definitely read this book! Anonymous, Amazon Reviews
 
Book Description: The Life List is the ultimate chick lit novel and most of the story is true. Chrissy Anderson, a twenty-eight year old fashion executive, created a seven-point life list at the age of sixteen and she’s been steadily checking off the boxes and mocking the style and life choices of everyone around her ever since.Her life begins to run amuck when she unexpectedly meets a much younger, Leo, who makes her question her “perfect life”.

Chrissy’s lifelong friendships and her marriage are put to the test as she tries to sort out her feelings for Leo. With the help of her brassy, no-nonsense therapist, Dr. Maria, Chrissy learns more about herself than she anticipates. But, it isn’t until the untimely death of her best friend that Chrissy is catapulted into long overdue authenticity and scrambles to correct the mistakes of her past….trying to figure out if it’s Kurt, Leo or both that she has to get rid of to make everything right. Women of all kinds-twenty-somethings, housewives and superwomen wanna-bes- will all be able to relate to the pressure of constructing the ideal life, only to fall short. Not everyone will agree with Chrissy Anderson’s decisions, but all will pause as they follow along on her journey to ask, “What would I do if I were her?” … Read more on Amazon.
About the Author: Who is Chrissy Anderson? Does it even matter really? I guess it would matter to the real Chrissy if she wrote The Life List for fortune and fame. But she didn’t. She did it all for you. Hold on, scratch that. Of course there were some self-indulgent components to the whole shootin’ match, but at the end of the day, she sees bits and pieces of her checkered past in almost every woman she encounters and she wants to help them, tell them they’re NOT crazy.
Women of all kinds - twenty-somethings, housewives and superwomen wanna-bes- will all be able to relate to the same pressures Chrissy felt of constructing the ideal life, only to fall short. And I suspect there will be a lot of exhaling going on as those women read The Life List. Not everyone will agree with Chrissy Anderson’s decisions, but all will pause as they follow along on her journey to ask, “What would I do if I were her?”
CHRISSY ANDERSON spends her life doing exactly what she always wanted: doting on those she loves. A former fashion executive, she is a writer, wife and mother whose own life events inspired THE LIFE LIST. She lives in Portland, Oregon, with the love of her life and her beautiful daughter.

“The Life List evokes so much emotion. I found myself so absorbed I didn’t want to stop reading. I laughed out loud, I cried, I could feel tension as if I were there with her. I even wished that I had a fraction of her courage. This story is so relatable for all women. Thank you Chrissy Anderson, for sharing your deepest darkest secrets and for allowing us to be a part of your journey.” ~ Christine, Amazon Reviews
