Ok, this book is written by the same woman who wrote "Sex and the City". Naturally I assumed it would be a fun, energetic read that I would thoroughly enjoy. Especially since the back cover of the book said things like "Hysterical" and such. I was not impressed by this book at all. Ask anyone, I enjoy almost every book I read, but this one didn't do anything for me. It was four stories told separately about four different women. The language was choppy and hard to follow, the characters were one dimmensional, and it was very difficult to become involved in their conflicts. In most of the books I read I find myself sympathizing with the main character and I start hoping that certain things will happen for them. Not the case with this book. I found that the women were bitter, unhappy, angry, rich snobs. I could not relate and did not want to. Some of the books I read have wealthy protagonists, but I feel like I can still relate to them as women. Again, not the case with this book. There was no plot development, no character development, and no story line that I could find. Overall, very disappointed with the book.

The first thought that comes to mind is WTF. I am one of these people when they read a book it needs to have an actual story. This book was so boring, long winded, and I have no idea what I just read. I feel that I just lost a day that could have been spent reading something better.

Oh come on now, this is probably Candice Bushnell's best book. I loved every second of it.

I actually remember reading this years ago and going through the worst rated titles on goodreads the awful book springs back to my mind. I love sex in the city or sex and the city whatever universe your from, so I gave this a go. I picked it up in a charity shop so many years ago because of the author and it was just terrible, I mean I was really young but still I was young enough the realise how self absorbed these characters are and how dull this book was as well. Generally awful and so much body shaming and really bad ideals which could really harm a reader. It’s just trash.

See above. This book made me begin to hate Sex and the City. And I'm actually kind of embarrassed to have read it.
