BOOK NEWS: One Fifth Avenue
For anyone out there who is suffering from Sex and The City withdrawal symptoms, well, withdraw no more (or for just a little bit longer anyway). Candace Bushnell has her fifth novel out this September called One Fifth Avenue.
One fifth avenue is the building to live in. It is in the trendiest area of Manhattan, known as "the gold coast" where the chicest, the hottest, and those with the best pedigree live.
The Amazon blurb:
There is Schiffer Diamond, an over-forty actress who had given up making movies and moved to Europe, until the call to come home gave her the chance to prove that women of style are truly ageless. There is spoiled, self-assured Lola, whose mother is determined to launch her darling daughter into society and the arms of the right man by clawing her way into the building. There is Annalisa, a reluctant socialite who has renounced her law career to be the perfect wife to her workaholic husband, and Winnie, who is married to an underpublished writer and has been the family breadwinner too long for her own - and her marriage's - good. And there is Nini, a glamorous grande dame who has lived at One Fifth Avenue for decades and seen everything from her penthouse view.

Love the cover! And wasn't One Fifth Avenue where Carrie and Big bought their penthouse in the SATC movie?

I thought this cover was quite lovely too. I didn't know that it was where Carrie and Big bought the apartment (call myself a fan!) but I was probably crying too much to notice...

So exciting! I was just thinking to myself last week about how there hasn't been a book out from here in ages. So happy to see that my wait will soon be over. This is turning into a awesome summer of all my favorite authors!
