Before Sex & The City, there was 'Carrie's Diaries'...

I pre-ordered this book back in December of 2009 and it finally arrived yesterday! Good thing, because I'm so excited to start reading it. Carrie's Diaries by Candace Bushnell, is all about Carrie before SEX & The City....and how about this book jacket? Isn't this the prettiest you've ever seen? I'm sooo looking forward to seeing the NEW Sex & the City film this May & hopefully I'll finish this book before then! 

You can order your copy of 'Carrie's Diaries' here.


Anyone else have this book yet??

The art work sucks me in and I almost bought the book for that reason alone! (great advertising...) I think I'll take a look the next time I'm at Barnes & Noble and see what I think.

I like when publishers are creative about the book cover designs. A good cover will always draw you in.

Dante said...

I've been waiting for the book forever, but didn't pre- order it cause it wouldn't ship out until that day. Instead I went to Borders as soon as they opened. I only had the book for two days now and am on Chapter 3. In the book we learn how the cover came to be. I believe I read somewhere that Carrie and... I don't want to spoil it for anyone. I like how the chapters are titled with lines used in paragraphs. The sequel qwill be out next summer where Carrie meets Samantha who is eight years older, so it will be interesting to know how Carrie's first year in NYC goes down and what kinda trouble her and Samantha get into. It kind of makes you wonder thought... in the original book the four woman didn't really know each other that well and weren't as close as they are in the series and movies. I wanna see how this all plays out.

Jennifer DeDonato said...

I ran across this book yesterday at 1/2 price books (a resale bookstore). I looked at it and thought what an amazing cover. I would buy it just for that!

1 Funky Woman said...

No, but I am a huge fan so I need to go and get it!
The cover is amazing!

Jaime @ La vie...J'aime said...

Funny, because I remember hearing so much about it and did a post on it...I assumed it came out last year! ha :) Let us know how it is!

Sara said...

I agree; the jacket is designed beautifully. I've never watched an episode of sex and the city...and just recently I did watch a snippet of the first movie. ...I hate to say it here...but I did not enjoy the plot...but LOVED the design featured in the snippet I did watch. I so loved all the fashions worn by each actress, and the interior design of both the penthouse and Carrie's remodeled apartment.
