Carrie's sharp observations of her peers and human relationships give the book smart, sassy intellectual power. --Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
"""Carrie's sharp observations of her peers and human relationships give the book smart, sassy intellectual power."" -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) ""With wit and insight, Carrie chronicles her emotionally charged senior year at a small Connecticut high school."" -- Publishers Weekly ""It would have been easy to write a coming-of-age story about Carrie Bradshaw that ham-fistedly foreshadows everything fans of the franchise know will come to pass. But Bushnell nails something harder: telling another chapter in the story of a cherished character that stands on its own."" -- Entertainment Weekly ""An addictive, ingenious origin story."" -- Los Angeles Times ""Fans will love this."" -- Booklist"
