May- 2

In May the second Sex and The City prequel was released. The Carrie Diaries: Summer in the City by Candace Bushnell followed the life of Carrie as she moves to New York, meets Samantha (which was the end of the first novel) and then Miranda. At the end of this novel she meets Charlotte as well and our quartet has been formed officially. I love all things SATC so this book was no exception. Easy quick read and I hope there will be more prequel books though I'm not sure.

I also listened to You Know When the Men are Gone by Siobhan Fallon. This novel is a collection of short stories that overlap at times about various Army families. Basically it's like a short story book resembling the TV show Army Wives. It has more depth to it through the stories though than the TV show, perhaps because of how well the author shapes the characters. Definitely an interesting listen and though provoking.
