I’m not usually a book snob. I will read anything and everything (except fantasy and horror) but, for some reason, I was snobby about Sophie Kinsella. I am not really a chick lit kinda gal. I hated Bridget Jones’ Diary. I am not into shopping, drinking, dancing, and I’ve been with the same guy for 15 years so I always thought those books just don’t speak to me.
But when I was pregnant, I had absolutely no attention span and I really wanted to read. So I grabbed a few of her books and realized that I really liked her style. Her quirky characters who always got into messes that were a size or two too big for them but managed to get out of them eventually.
Her books seem to always have a twist. Not mind-blowing or anything. But interesting and not always fully expected. And Twenties Girl was no exception. It’s fun. It’s sweet. And a wonderful read.
I am fully willing to admit it. I like Sophie Kinsella’s books. They’re fun.

I’m curious to read this. I have read her others but were not wild about the Shopaholic series.
You should try Jane Green,Lisa Jewell or Marian Keyes – chick lit with a twist. Particularly Lisa Jewell’s latest – The Truth about Melody Browne.
Thanks for sharing!
Chicklit has its place – when you need to read but can’t concentrate.
Sorry, hit the wrong button. Two of my best chicklit books: Cathy Yardley – L.A. Woman and Julie Kenner = The Prada Paradox.
Shayne, I havent read any of the shopaholics, they don’t seem to interest me for some reason. but i liked two others, one about the secret and i can’t remember the other one’s title, i’ll look it up and come back and post it š
I just got finished reading this book. I really enjoyed it as a light read. I enjoyed the twist – I thought is was going to be the same as her other books so it was unexpected.
Undomestic Goddess? LOved that one. Her other one i enjoyed was remember me. Not mind-blowing, but enjoyable.
