Book Reviews of Sex and the City
Book Review: Big Disappointment
Summary: 1 Stars
I do not get HBO but did buy the DVD series of this TV show (the first season). Then I bought this book. I read the book in one day and thought it was very boring -- very slightly like the series, but I think the tv show is so much better. The writing in the book was dull and un-interesting. Don't waste your time or money -- .Book Review: Blah...
Summary: 2 Stars
Compared to the Show.....blah. You will be disappointed in this book if you are a fan of the show. The story line is the usual....but the character development and plot are boring. Weak.Book Review: Book is to show what fast food is to haute cuisine
Summary: 2 Stars
On the show, the characters are well developed and multifaceted. They are good friends, and Carrie (the main character) is likeable and generally admirable. If she were a real person, I'd want her as a friend.In the book, the characters are only sketched. They are merely acquaintances. Carrie is a spoiled brat. If she were a real person, I'd avoid her!
I finished reading the book only because I was on the treadmill at the gym with no other entertainment options. But I LOVE the series! That is, I love what I have seen of the series -- the first season, which is on video. I don't have HBO. I eagerly await the next season's videos!
Book Review: Boring and depressing
Summary: 1 Stars
I love the "sex and the city" show! But I really hated the book! I found it boring and depressing... it makes you think that if you are a woman about 30 something it's almost impossible to find a good mate!Book Review: Boring compared to the series
Summary: 2 Stars
LOVE the HBO series for its wit and sharpness. The book by comparison is more breezy than a magazine and unsatisfying and not as funny. If you're a true fan of the series, the book will prove thin and dull.
