Summer and the City (Turtleback School & Library)

pick

I have been a fan of “Sex in the City” since the beginning; naturally I was drawn to the “pre-Carrie” per Candace Bushnell. I loved this book. It took me longer to get through- it was well worth it. I loved seeing how Carrie met her dynamic three as their relationships are iconic and protruded through the book so well. It was inspiring because “Carrie never wins, especially at love.” And isn‘t that something every person can relate to?

Absolutely dreadful. Carrie is obnoxious & the inappropriate relationship (albeit with no sexual intercourse) between her (a 17 year old) & Bernard (in his 30s) has a definite ick factor. Carrie lies about her age but she is so immature it‘s difficult to see how people could believe she was even a couple of years older. I only finished it for a book challenge prompt. 1⭐️

SilversReviews Nice books. LOVE Kate Morton. THE LAKE HOUSE was fab as all of her books are. 7y

EllieDottie I've never read Kate Morton! Have you read any of her other books? Do you have any recommendations of where to start? 7y

Jess7 @EllieDottie I've only ever read this one #TheLakeHouse , but it was very, very good. It starts off a little slow, but once it picks up, you will likely not be able to put it down. It was so good I didn't really want it to be over. If I didn't already have so many new books coming in from holds' list at the library I would have already read more by her. Next up on my list by her is #TheSecretKeeper.
