Well it depends on how chick-lit you wanna get. I mean there's Sandra Brown books which are certainly considered chick-lit but I think aren't really great reads.
I would suggest the following that I have read and really enjoyed:
All He Ever Wanted by Anita Shreve,
The Right Attitude to Rain by Andrew McCall Smith,
Jumping in Sunset by Ringling
Mine Are Spectacular by Janice Kaplan,
Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas by James Patterson
Drowning Ruth by Christina Schwarz
Open House by Elizabeth Berg
Madame Bovary by Gustave Flaubert
I hope you enjoy these! :)

Cry to heaven by Anne Rice....Spartacus by Howard Fast(outlawed during the Mccarthy era).....The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexander Dumas, who also wrote the Three Musketeers & The man in the iron mask.....The Thornbirds by Colleen McCullough...brilliant book.....The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck (An amazing classic) & The Good Earth by Pearl Buck, lastly A Tree Grows in Brooklyn by betty Smith.
There, many classics and page turners for you!!! I have read all of these and in some cases multiple times!!! I really hope that this helps you!!! Spartacus will blow your mind. It had to be released in England as the McCarthy era had Howard fast black balled when it was written.
I hope that you read Cry to heaven by Anne Rice...it is NOT about vampires, but about the Italian Castrati, thus it is truth intermixed with fiction, rather historical fiction....
Happy reading!!!!! I gave y usome of my top faves here!!
Thanks,
Lioncourt

I'm reading Saving Fish From Drowning by Amy Tan. I really like it. I must admit I like her writing style, this is the second of hers I've read.
