Four Blondes (Candace Bushnell)

* Four Blondes tells the stories of four women caught at crossroads in their lives, facing choices and realizations that will redefine them forever. A beautiful B-list model finagles rent-free summerhouses in the Hamptons from her wealthy lovers, until she discovers that she can get a man for the summer but she can't get what she wants. A high-powered magazine columnist's floundering marriage to a literary journalist is thrown into crisis when her husband spends a wild night on the town with his movie star friend. A self-styled Cinderella whose royal husband was one of the world's most eligible bachelors records her descent into paranoia as she attempts to re-create her self and her world. A writer who fears her time for finding a husband is running out travels to London in search for the kind of love and devotion she can't find in Manhattan - and gets far more than she bargained for.

This book contains four stories about four blondes. All of them are forgettable.

I somehow have a high expectation with this since it was written by the creator of Sex and the City. I thought I would enjoy reading it. But I got really disappointed. It is not witty and funny. The stories seem pointless and are very uninteresting.

If you're totally bored and want to read something, go read the back label of a cereal box instead of this book. Spare yourself from disappointment.

Rating: 1/5
