Current read - Summer and the City by Candace Bushnell


The second book in the series of the Carrie diaries
......
 


I thoroughly enjoy books by Candace Bushnell she is one author that really gets into the character and immerses herself into the world she has created. I read ‘The Carrie diaries’ when it first came out and I remember I couldn’t put the book down.

I’m currently reading chapter 13 of summer and the city and so far I have enjoyed it. It is pretty slow at the moment but it is starting to pick up pace. I love the fact we get an insight of Samantha Jones and Miranda Hobbes when they are young. Carrie Bradshaw is starting out as a writer and has a loooong way to go but the fact that we know she gets there makes you dream as hard as she does that she reaches her goal.

Reading this book makes me want to become a successful writer like Carrie will become. As well as being a girly book and having all the sex, ups and downs in love and things you can relate to as a young adult, you also become inspired.

If Miss Bradshaw isn’t writing, she is either at the hottest party (thanks to Samantha), with the hottest guy, or hooking up with famous people (a playwright being one of them! Every girls dream?). The character Carrie I find inspiring as she is independent, ambitious and always herself. She is the strong independent woman we all want to be. She is in the scary, all- happening city that is NY!! Be prepared to be envious if you read this book. Her life seems like such a HOOT!
a book that you can 100% get lost in.
