Take a Page Out of Carrie’s Book: A Summer Reading List Taken Straight from ‘And Just Like That’
Say what you want about Carrie Bradshaw, but the woman knows her books.
The And Just Like That protagonist is a writer (now making a foray into fiction!), and there’s no doubt that well-documented bibliophile Sarah Jessica Parker bleeds into her character as well.
Consequently, the books the NYC fashionista is seen reading on the Sex and the City spinoff have weight (sometimes literally, hello 500-pagers!), and they’re hand-selected by Parker and the AJLT team in a “collaborative process,” according to prop master Michael Cory.
“Ultimately, it comes down to the writers and Sarah Jessica Parker herself,” Cory told Vogue in 2023. “The character of Carrie is a writer, so she wants to be very in that world. In season one, it was my first time working with [Parker], so we had a much larger conversation about it. She was interested in literary journals, particularly Irish ones, and more poetry. She gave us a couple of titles to go on, and we ran with that. She got more specific as it went on.”
Looking for your next summer read? Follow Carrie’s Manolo Blahnik-laden lead (and that of SJP, often seen reading on set) with these picks:
