Book Review: Sex and the City


Book: Sex and the City by Candace Bushnell

Description:

Enter a world where the sometimes shocking and often hilarious mating habits of the privileged are exposed by a true insider. In essays drawn from her witty and sometimes brutally candid column in the New York Observer, Candace Bushnell introduces us to the young and beautiful who travel in packs from parties to bars to clubs. Meet "Carrie," the quintessential young writer looking for love in all the wrong places..."Mr. Big," the business tycoon who drifts from one relationship to another..."Samantha Jones," the fortyish, successful, "testosterone woman" who uses sex like a man...not to mention "Psycho Moms," "Bicycle Boys," "International Crazy Girls," and the rest of the New Yorkers who have inspired one of the most watched TV series of our time.

Review:

I thought this book was awful. It's a wonder how they were able to get a hit show (it's one of my favorites) from this horrible book. The writting was flat and boring and poorly written as well as the characters were all one-dimensional. This book was nothing more than superfical fluff.

Ms. Bushnell should be thanking Michael Patrick King for transforming this book into an amazing show. If the TV show was like this book, I don't think I ever would of watched it.
