READ THIS: Twenties Girl by Sophie Kinsella

Tentative On-Sale Date: July 21, 2009

The minute this book goes on sale, Peachy Deegan recommends you get yourself a copy! We love Sophie Kinsella and during her last book launch, Peachy met her and got herself a signed copy of the latest Shopaholic book, but with Twenties Girl, Sophie introduces her readers to another heroine of hectic: Lara Lington who is equally lovable as past characters Kinsella has dreamed up.

Set in London, Twenties Girl starts off with a funeral, of all things, that sets the stage for a family quite literally full of characters, with personalities across the spectrum. Surely some of us will recognize some of them from our own lives...

While she was reading Twenties Girl, Peachy Deegan could not help but think what a fabulous movie this would be as well. The main character other than Lara is her great-aunt Sadie, who comes in a mysterious form, and their relationship sparkles through the 400 plus pages that span these generations. Although it starts with a quest to find a missing necklace, the wisdom that Sadie imparts in various forms will make you smile, laugh, gawk and above all wish your great-aunt was coming back to you in the same exact way.

Who would not love to do card tricks, read people's minds, and put ideas in their heads? How does she do it? Peachy cannot give away these secrets-you must read the book!

The strong character development, the twisted plots and subplots, and the throwback to the 1920s make Twenties Girl a must-read.

Especially unique among Kinsella's books, Twenties Girl has some history to it, explores family relationships in greater depth and shows us that there is a light at the end of the tunnel...but what kind of tunnel? You will be reading to find out what is in store for Lara Lington, the business she started, her relationship that ended...and much more!

We knew it would be good-it's by Sophie Kinsella!

Whom You Know thanks Rochelle and the lovely people at Dial Press and Random House

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
