Sneak into this book:-
Previously in 'The Carrie Diaries',  Carrie Bradshaw takes New York for a writing seminar. As soon as she gets there, she lost her purse and has no choice but to contact Donna's cousin, Samantha Jones. For a few days she was force to rent an apartment alongside the worst apartment onwer-Penny and a nice friend Lil' who also takes the writing seminar class. In her class, she met a few person like Ryan, who just for a while hooks up with her childhood friend Maggie-when she came to NY for a visit, and also Capote Duncan who she thinks is so full of himself and is kinda arrogant. In this stories, it tells how Carrie fights her way to become accepted in NY and her writer ambition, all her failures and the happy endings. There is also a twist at the end where she falls in love and ends up with an unexpected person. Enjoy!

My Reviews:-
~ First of all, the characters and story again came to life. They were very real that you thought these people actually exist. Love the way Candace Bushnell potrays all her stories.
~ To me Carrie is the person who doesnt give up easily and in a way that really inspired me. She was determine to make it as a writer and to be accepted in NY whatever happens and feels that she belongs there. Regardless all the turn downs that she kept on facing, she went back to NY to chase her dream. She really is inspiring to other girls.
~ The stories included funny characters like the bold Samantha and Miranda, and it blended nicely in all chapters, makes it fun to read. Again, sex was the issue and Carrie determines to keep her virginity till she meets the right guy. Oh I respect her for that. Not many west side people have that kind of principle:)
All in all I really enjoyed reading these duo series and cant believe its finally over. The ending is those kinds which you need to picture by yourself and assume it is a happy ending as the writer didnt really puts the exact details on it. You might thought she had another 3rd book coming. But Im not sure. I give this book 6/5 stars! Opps thats more than the max but really, its fun to read!!
