As I am a raging fanatic of the 'Sex and The City' series, and the follow up movies- I decided to indulge myself from the very beginning- Bushnell the inspiration. Bushnell wrote about her lifestyle within the city and her friends from the most bizarre year ' the nineties'. It is in the style of short stories as within each chapter lies a new tale unfolding from deep within the city. New York is my favourite place in the whole wide world, and for this very reason I absolutely loved reading about females lifestyles from the city. The book captures the newspaper columns originality, with a catchy headline for each new beginning or development of a story. However, if you expect the book to be anything like the series, then you will be fairly disappointed- as for me nobody plays Carrie Bradshaw as well as Sarah Jessica Parker. Visualising anyone but her- deems pretty impossible. The stories are quite hard to follow at some points of the book as they involve a variety of different characters that pop in and out, throughout the book. However, overall reading about the New York cocktail inspired lifestyle, following the views of feminists and various other forms of femininity was captured wonderfully.
***-3 Star Rating
