I have read all of Sophie Kinsella's books and enjoyed every one of them. "Twenties Girl" is another winner, a little different from Kinsella's usual style and characters but extremely enjoyable for it.
It is laugh-out-loud funny in some parts, completely surreal in others and still in other parts quite sad. I was almost in tears near the end!
It also gives an interesting look at the fashions and fads of the 1920s Flapper girls, and there is a particularly poignant scene in an old people's home where Lara, the story's main protagonist, realises that all the elderly residents were once young, vibrant, beautiful people with lives and loves of their own.
Altogether a lovely, funny, heartwarming read. Highly recommended.

If you expected a typical chick lit book and were put off by the whole ghost of Aunt Sadie bit, thinking it cheesy and put it down... pick it up and keep reading to the end! There's more to this book than meets the eye. A life lesson with valuable insight into the importance finding out the history of people in our lives before it's too late and we're left with only saying an awkward goodbye at the funeral. I feel like I should call up my Mother and ask her to tell me what her life was like in her 20s whilst she can still remember them like they were yesterday. :-)

I started this book at 3pm yesterday and I literally could not put it down reading it SOLIDLY until 4am in the morning without realising. I could not put it down. Its funny, quirky and has a brilliant twist.
I would highly reccomend and im now off to start another Sophie Kinsella book!
