About this listen
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.

Story
Workaholic attorney Samantha Sweeting has just done the unthinkable. She's made a mistake so huge, it'll wreck any chance of a partnership. Going into utter meltdown, she walks out of her London office, gets on a train, and ends up in the middle of nowhere. Asking for directions at a big, beautiful house, she's mistaken for an interviewee and finds herself being offered a job as housekeeper. Her employers have no idea they've hired a lawyer, and Samantha has no idea how to work the oven. She can't sew on a button, bake a potato, or get the #@%# ironing board to open.

Story
Lottie just knows that her boyfriend is going to propose during lunch at one of London’s fanciest restaurants. But when his big question involves a trip abroad, not a trip down the aisle, she’s completely crushed. So when Ben, an old flame, calls her out of the blue and reminds Lottie of their pact to get married if they were both still single at 30, she jumps at the chance. No formal dates - just a quick march to the altar and a honeymoon on Ikonos, the sun-drenched Greek island where they first met years ago. Their family and friends are horrified. Fliss, Lottie’s older sister, knows that Lottie can be impulsive - but surely this is her worst decision yet.

Story
Sasha has had it. She cannot bring herself to respond to another inane, “urgent” email or participate in the corporate employee joyfulness program. She hasn’t seen her friends in months. Sex? Seems like a lot of effort. Even cooking dinner takes far too much planning. Sasha has hit a wall. Armed with good intentions to drink kale smoothies, try yoga, and find peace, she heads to the seaside resort she loved as a child. But it’s the off season, the hotel is in a dilapidated shambles, and she has to share the beach with the only other occupant: a grumpy guy named Finn.

At the retreat, she's not allowed to use her real name or reveal any personal information.

Minnie Cooper knows two things with certainty: that her New Year's birthday is unlucky, and that it's all because of Quinn Hamilton, a man she's never met. Their mothers gave birth to them at the same hospital just after midnight on New Year's Day, but Quinn was given the cash prize for being the first baby born in London in 1990 - and the name Minnie was meant to have, as well. With luck like that, it's no wonder each of her birthdays has been more of a disaster than the one before.

Best ever
I think I’ve read almost all of Sophie Kinsella’s books and this one is a stand out. I absolutely loved the story and the relationship at its heart. This is well worth reading and the narrator does an excellent job.

Light and Fun!
I got this book for roadtrip my spouse and I took recently. I was worried it would not keep my spouse interested, but it did! I am a fan of the Sophie Kinsella books and this did not disappoint and bonus it kept us entertained on the road.

Fun sweet read
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
yes because I like the heroine and her ghost aunt.
What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?
the character development of both the ghost coming to terms with her past and the heroine letting go of her obsession with an exboyfriend and maturing and having a healthier relationship with someone more mature and appropriate of her
What three words best describe Rosalyn Landor’s voice?
elegant, classy, lovely
Could you see Twenties Girl being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?
yes, I do. I think Liv Tyler should play the lead and Hugh Dancy as the nice boyfriend

Nonsense Nonsense
My expectations from a Sophie Kinsella story are not that high. But usually a light and entertaining tale. this was just the over the top unrealistic, predictable nonsense. I won't be downloading any other new Kinsella anytime soon, sorry.
