We all like Sex in the City. Candace, what happened? This is such a disappointment from such a talented writer. I'm sorry I spent the [amt] on the hardback...and the 5 hours of wasted time reading it. The characters in this book are so shallow and vacuous that it only served to depress me. Was that the point? I only give it 2 stars instead of 1 because I was able to finish it. Perhaps I kept reading hoping it would improve? Bottom line: don't waste your time or money.
