4. ARC Giveaway of SUMMER AND THE CITY

THE CARRIE DIARIES by Candace Bushnell introduced the world to Carrie Bradshaw as a teenager, leading up to her move to New York City (wasn’t the end line of THE CARRIE DIARIES the most perfect thing?!).

Now there’s SUMMER AND THE CITY.  Carrie Bradshaw is loving NYC in the summer, especially since she’s taking her first real writing class.  But making it in the big city isn’t all glamour and gorgeousness, as Carrie soon discovers.

SUMMER AND THE CITY is the continuing story of Carrie Bradshaw, an icon of fashion and New York City.  On-sale April 26, 2011.

Can’t make it to New York this summer?  We have the next best thing: we’re giving away TWO gift packs containing an advanced readers copy of SUMMER AND THE CITY, a letter from Candace Bushnell, and a “I <Heart> NYC” t-shirt.  Tell us in the comments what you love about Carrie Bradshaw and/or New York City, and you’ll be entered to win one of the two prize packages.  Contest ends 11:59 p.m. Sunday, March 20th.  Winners will be announced Monday, March 21st.

6. Carrie Bradshaw

"Some people are settling down, some people are settling, and some refuse to settle for anything less than butterflies." - Carrie Bradshaw




I wrote a post a while back about the Ultimate Teen Queen... but the woman I want to be when I grow up? Carrie Bradshaw. Witty, intelligent, loyal, idealistic, hard-working, completely loving... and did I mention her closet? Carrie, Charlotte, Miranda, and Samantha kept my friends and I company throughout our college years. And let's be honest, I still kind of feel like I'm friends with them today!

 With Sex and the City 2 out this weekend, I definitely have Carrie on my mind. So you may be asking, "Sure, sure, she's fabulous. But what business does she have on a book blog?" Good question. First of all, one of the things that I always loved about Sex and the City was the writing. Whether you love Samantha's sass, Miranda's sarcasm, Charlotte's hopeless romanticism, or Carrie's spot-on observations about life and life, the entire show is quotable.

"Maybe our mistakes are what make our fate. Without them, what would shape our lives? Perhaps if we never veered off course, we wouldn't fall in love, or have babies, or be who we are. After all, seasons change. So do cities. People come into your life and people go. But it's comforting to know the ones you love are always in your heart, and if you're lucky, a plane ride away." - Carrie 


"It would be childish of us to deny that our lives were changing. But for this night, none of us were going anywhere. That's the thing about really good friends..." - Carrie

"If you're tired of New York, you take a nap-a. You don't move to Napa!" - Carrie (J, if you're reading, this one's for you!)
