GIVEAWAY: Twenties Girl by Sophie Kinsella
August 1st, 2009
Happy Saturday everyone! I’m going to offer up my extremely gently read hardcover copy of Twenties Girl to one lucky winner! I just finished it the other day and I really enjoyed it – I’m such a Kinsella fan. lol. You can see my review here if you like. Otherwise, here is a bit about the book from Random House…
Lara Lington has always had an overactive imagination, but suddenly that imagination seems to be in overdrive. Normal professional twenty-something young women don’t get visited by ghosts. Or do they?
When the spirit of Lara’s great-aunt Sadie–a feisty, demanding girl with firm ideas about fashion, love, and the right way to dance–mysteriously appears, she has one last request: Lara must find a missing necklace that had been in Sadie’s possession for more than seventy-five years, and Sadie cannot rest without it. Lara, on the other hand, has a number of ongoing distractions. Her best friend and business partner has run off to Goa, her start-up company is floundering, and she’s just been dumped by the “perfect” man.
Sadie, however, could care less.
Lara and Sadie make a hilarious sparring duo, and at first it seems as though they have nothing in common. But as the mission to find Sadie’s necklace leads to intrigue and a new romance for Lara, these very different “twenties” girls learn some surprising truths from each other along the way. Written with all the irrepressible charm and humor that have made Sophie Kinsella’s books beloved by millions, Twenties Girl is also a deeply moving testament to the transcendent bonds of friendship and family.

Hi!
I just finished this book and highly recommend it! I've read all the shopaholic books and this character is as enjoyable.
I also suggest you read some of the other books under Sophie Kinsella's actual name:
Madeiline Wickham. The books are not as humorous but are enjoyable.
Sounds great!
