** spoiler alert ** 
 So I've been kinda entrenched in a couple of book series back to back recently one about fantasy alternative universes and the other about Arthurian legend set in the dark ages. With that in mind I really thought it was time to go back to reading something kinda light and fluffy. A friend had mentioned about reading Twenties Girl and it reminded me that I had that book and had never got round to reading it, so when I was looking for something fun to read it seemed like the perfect go to book in that regard. 
 It was a fun book - the main character was eccentric enough to be interesting but not zany enough to be annoying. I liked her flaws (maybe because they are a little close to me own?) and I loved that there was a dash of art stuff in it. Okay, it was subtle but even a tiny hint of excuse to read about some form of art history (even if it's fictional) and I'll take it. Maybe my romantic side, but I do sometimes look at old portraits and wonder about their story so this appealed to me. Her relationship with Josh, her ex she was still obsessed with and Ed, the American that she only met because of Sadie, were both handled well. 
 I did find Sadie a bit annoying. She was so OTT and so selfish at times, but I guess that was kind of the point, but she definitely had her moments. The stuff when Lara and Ed kissed for example - I almost yayed out loud when Lara yelled at her for her attitude, but she did tend to come good in the end. Her love & life story were equally tragic but I was so pleased that somehow it all came together for them all. 
 This was definitely a fun book to get back on the chick-lit horse and reminds me why I enjoy the genre.
