I'm a huge Sex and the City fan. I loved the show. I loved the girls. But this book? Well... I read it while on holiday. Exactly because I wanted a light read. But still. I found there was no reason for it to exist. "Then why did you read it?" one would ask. That's the one million dollar question! T...

I'd rate it a 3.5 actually. It was pretty good. Funny. :)

I love Sex & the City, but I haven't actually read any of the books. I liked One Fifth Avenue, so I thought I'd try this one. I was very pleasantly surprised. Carrie, as a teenager, is such a likable character. The story was well-written and I couldn't put it down! The perfect thing to get me p...

Original PostI am in love with the Tv Show Sex and the City. Its my all time favourite show. I had never read any of Candace Bushnells novels.

I've never read anything by Candace Bushnell before. I've watched Sex and The City and enjoyed it but never really felt the need to pick up on one of her books. This book is (I can only assume) a combination; back story for Carrie and a young adult friendly version of the Sex and the City books. As ...

It's like crack. You read it, but furtively, and neeeever ever reveal your secret shame. We all know is Sex and the City for teens, so let's throw in more angst and internal love-triangles. Keep the wit, change vocab, change scenery (for the moment at least) and voila, we have The Carrie Diaries. Co...

This book is directed at young adults, but to me it is really more of an adult book, or the teen needs to be really mature to read this. The story goes back in time to Carrie Bradshaw's roots back in the 70's. I guess her behavior was pretty typical during that era with lots of alcohol, random sex...

You can imagine how happy I was when I noticed this book on the bookshelf at Waterstone's last Thursday. Finding this book totally made that Thursday one of the best days ever. First Macbeth at Globe and then finding this from Waterstone's. I couldn't wait to get back to the hostel to spend rest of ...
