Summer and the City (Turtleback School & Library)
Summer and the City (Turtleback School & Library) | Candace Bushnell
8 posts | 24 read | 9 to read
The Sequel to the #1 "New York Times" Bestseller "The Carrie Diaries" "Summer and the City" brings surprising revelations as Carrie learns to navigate her way around the Big Apple, going from being a country "sparrow"--as Samantha Jones dubs her--to the person she always wanted to be. But as it becomes increasingly difficult to reconcile her past with her future, Carrie realizes that making it in New York is much more complicated than she ever imagined. With her signature wit and sparkling humor, Candace Bushnell reveals the irresistible story of how Carrie met Samantha and Miranda, and what turned a small-town girl into one of New York City's most unforgettable icons, Carrie Bradshaw.

I have been a fan of “Sex in the City” since the beginning; naturally I was drawn to the “pre-Carrie” per Candace Bushnell. I loved this book. It took me longer to get through- it was well worth it. I loved seeing how Carrie met her dynamic three as their relationships are iconic and protruded through the book so well. It was inspiring because “Carrie never wins, especially at love.” And isn‘t that something every person can relate to?

Absolutely dreadful. Carrie is obnoxious & the inappropriate relationship (albeit with no sexual intercourse) between her (a 17 year old) & Bernard (in his 30s) has a definite ick factor. Carrie lies about her age but she is so immature it‘s difficult to see how people could believe she was even a couple of years older. I only finished it for a book challenge prompt. 1⭐️

SilversReviews Nice books. LOVE Kate Morton. THE LAKE HOUSE was fab as all of her books are. 7y
EllieDottie I've never read Kate Morton! Have you read any of her other books? Do you have any recommendations of where to start? 7y
Jess7 @EllieDottie I've only ever read this one #TheLakeHouse , but it was very, very good. It starts off a little slow, but once it picks up, you will likely not be able to put it down. It was so good I didn't really want it to be over. If I didn't already have so many new books coming in from holds' list at the library I would have already read more by her. Next up on my list by her is #TheSecretKeeper. 7y
EllieDottie That sounds amazing! I've added it!! 7y
