I adore old people and have for as long as I can recall. They have stories to tell, but I think often times they are seen as wrinkly people who have always been wrinkly and worn-out having never living a life other than that. I totally loved that TWENTIES GIRL makes the reader stop and think about just that. Great Aunt Sadie is 105 years old and has lost something very important to her. She wants it back, but there is one tiny little problem... Great Aunt Sadie is dead! That doesn't stop her though. She perseveres and discovers her great niece Laura can see and hear her! What follows is a wild ride of Sadie living vicariously through Laura and along the way teaching her how to really live. Sadie's philosophy... "Darling, when things go wrong in live, this is what you do--- lift your chin, put on a ravishing smile, mix yourself a little cocktail and out you go." I love Great Aunt Sadie!
