Book Review: Hex and the Critics
Summary: 1 Stars
5 stars? It's almost like Candace Bushnell jedi-mind-tricked some of her reviewers. I don't get it. I read this book after a trip to New York. I had watched a lot of the show and found it really captivating, but I did NOT expect the book to be like the show. A book can stand alone... except when it can't. And this book can't. It is completely disjointed. I agree with another reviewer who said that it's almost like Bushnell is telling inside jokes for New Yorkers. She starts, stops, hops all over the place, starts again somwhere else. NONE of it hangs together. And I have to say, I'm pretty amazed that this book was selected as the idea for an HBO series. I found the writing very stilted and mundane. It was weird how the beginning and middle of the book featured a host of characters and then the end of the book was pretty much only about Carrie and Mr. Big. I felt like I had been handed the final half of a totally different manuscript! Don't read this book if you like story format, developed characters, or any kind of closure or ending for sure.
