From a bestselling novelist, this "cultural phenomenon" is a fascinating foray into the hearts, minds, and mating habits of modern-day New Yorkers and the inspiration behind the television series (Oprah).

Enter a world where the shocking and hilarious dating rituals of the privileged are exposed by a true insider. In essays drawn from her witty and sometimes brutally candid column in the New York Observer, Candace Bushnell introduces us to the young and beautiful who travel in packs from parties to bars to clubs–and forever changes the conversation about women, friendships, love, and sex.

Wildly funny, unexpectedly poignant, wickedly observant, Sex and the City blazes a glorious, drunken cocktail trail through Manhattan.

"Fascinating... hilarious... welcome to the cruel planet that is Manhattan." – Los Angeles Times

"Compulsively readable." – Marie Claire

"Jane Austen with a martini."– Sunday Telegraph

Featured Article: For Women Thinking About Stopping Drinking, ‘Quit Lit’ Can Help


Just as women have spent the past few decades being marketed wine and cocktails as uniquely suited to their lifestyle, many are now questioning narrow treatments for alcohol abuse and proposing another way. The growing genre of "Quit Lit" runneth over with audiobooks, memoirs, and podcasts specifically for women—and whether you’re detoxing for Dry January, moderating, or trying to quit for good, they could be exactly what you need to hear.

Cynthia Nixon deserved more recognition for this performance. I liked the story a lot and will be striving to listen to more by Ms. Bushnell.

Loved it like the show…

i enjoyed this book and while i didn't think it was for everyone, i thought it was an intelligent look at how the women portrayed in this book were actually representatives of myself and other women i know.

I am a fan of the show and movies. Listened to the book after. I don't know .... I see the characters from the book ... The inspiration. Loved Cynthia as narrator!

Can you call it a story?

The narration was good and a familiar voice from the series was pleasant to hear. However, I was expecting it to be closer to the series - it wasn't. I didn't find it very exciting or engaging. Perhaps if I heard this without seeing the series first, I may have had a different review.

Not what I expected

wow such a difference from the show... but some similarities. like the drug usage is crazy. Skipper is a ho and Samantha crying!? I liked hearing Cynthia Nixon reading, her voice is soothing. The book is in parts and has few chapters. if you are a fan of the show... it's a fun summer audible and interesting to hear how different the characters are from the show. do it!
