Sex and the City

So, I have ALWAYS been a huge fan of Sex and the City...I watched every episode at least once and now own the complete series...I also have seen the movie, which I LOVED...and look forward to owning it too! So...I had never read the book, and her newest book ONE FIFTH AVENUE had just come out...so I thought, why not? Well, I don't normally say this, but the TV series and the movie were MUCH better than the book. The book was choppy and didn't flow. It was a bunch of snippets of conversation that don't quite mesh...I am still going to attempt her new one...I will let you know what I think, and I want to try LIPSTICK JUNGLE (which I am loving on TV as well). What did you think? Have you read the book? Let me know!

I completely agree with you, the book is NOT the same at all. I think the tone of it is just so different from the show. I did read "Lipstick" and I actually liked the book better than the show. And I am currently on the library waiting list for her latest, I'll let you know my review when I get it.
She gave me my NYC girls and I just can't give up on her yet!

I am on the wait list for her newest...we will see. I am also going to try Lipstick Jungle...I have heard some good things about it. I was just so sad about Sex in the City. Oh well...there has to be one book out there that doesn't measure up...maybe this was the one!
