Even if you watch the show, this is their backstory. Yes the tv show picks up where they left off, but it didn't take two much from the book. The first couple episodes are the ending of the book, but if you value the story behind the characters and what they were feeling, it will help you understand the tv show much more. Its a really great read and moves only pretty quickly. I really recommend reading this for anyone who enjoys chick-lit.

I've read A LOT of chick lit, and most of it does have a certain amount of fluff or things that are really more laughable than anything else. But therein usually lies the appeal for those times when you want a "light" read. This book, however, is a total snooze-a-thon. In keeping with Sex And The City, it portrays a bunch of women ranging from career driven singletons to socialites, all of whom have one thing in common: they're totally desperate. It's really kind of pathetic - I know that I wouldn't want to be in any of their shoes.

This was a great book about 3 friends who are on the list of the most powerful women in NYC, how they juggle their personal lives with their professional lives, and the sacrifices they make on both those ends. I really liked this one! I am looking forward to seeing the series based on this book on TV this fall!!
