Well at least it got better towards the end. And l appreciated the female empowerment angle versus the usual expected easy way out with a man saving the day.
2.5 stars. My escape fluff book this weekend. I will be recommending it to no one.
I was looking for a light palette cleaner between more serious books, but this was rough. The characters were beyond unlike-able and the plot was trite. There was a minorly clever twist that I didn't figure out until about 90% of the way through, but it never paid off or got developed. Finished out of stubbornness, do not recommend.
A fun farce with some commentary on female friendships and why they go south, and what it means to be a woman whose "happily ever after" is not ties to a man.
This sounded like it might be fun to read, but UGH I could barely read past the first couple chapters. Poorly written and the main character was super annoying. No thanks!
Well...it took me a really long time to even care about the characters one little bit. I never really loved them. I know a book with a hot pink cover is not supposed to be great literature, but... I can't say I recommend this one even to the "trash" crowd.
I love Candace Bushnell books! This one is not my favorite but I still enjoyed it. It is great fun!
3.5. My review is as unbiased as I can muster. Candy Bushnell created Sex & The City. She's a chick lit Goddess, IMO. Right up there with Kinsella, Fielding, and Weiner - aka The Greats.
I've also been thirsty for a new release from her and KM hit the spot. Bushnell's writing voice is still as sassy and stinging as ever, pulling us into the life of Pandy with a drink in one hand and a cig in the other. We learn about her friendships and relationships before she enters an alternate world, which was an unexpected twist for Bushnell readers. I quite liked it!
I enjoyed the book so much that I'm starts SATC again for probably the tenth time (that book's one of my faves of all time). Already thirsty for another CB read!

An entertaining, fast-paced tale in Candace Bushnell's familiar world of fashion, film stars and best-selling authors. A little surreal towards the end, it is full of delightful twists and turns that keep you gripped to the end.
I don't now why I keep reading books by this author, I never enjoy them. 3 stars and a note to self to stop already!
