Just over three weeks to go until we can finally pounce on the new Sophie Kinsella novel, and most probably devour it in one sitting!
Since the first ‘Shopaholic’ novel was published 9 years ago (Eek!) Kinsella novels have become a must buy for anyone who wants a lighthearted, escapist read with tons of laughs.
The Synopsis for Twenties Girl reads;
Lara has always had an overactive imagination. Now she wonders if she is losing her mind. Normal twenty-something girls just don’t get visited by ghosts! But inexplicably, the spirit of Lara’s great aunt Sadie – in the form of a bold, demanding Charleston-dancing girl – has appeared to make one last request: Lara must track down a missing necklace Sadie simply can’t rest without. Lara’s got enough problems of her own. Her start-up company is floundering, her best friend and business partner has run off to Goa, and she’s just been dumped by the love of her life. But as Lara spends time with Sadie, life becomes more glamorous and their treasure hunt turns into something intriguing and romantic. Could Sadie’s ghost be the answer to Lara’s problems and can two girls from different times end up learning something special from each other?
Sounds like a slight graduation from the norm, especially with the paranormal element. But I’m guessing it’s still cram packed with Kinsella’s lovable charachters and laugh out loud moments.
You can pre order Twenties Girl, which is out on the 16th July right here
