Query: Stick to the Show

Alright, so I love the series. I thought, hey the book should be awesome. I understand the book came out first, but I don't know how the show was "based on the book by Candace Bushnell" because it's not really. There are some stories similar.. Big calls her "Kid", but her friends are different, the characters are not the same at all, they don't even do the same things. Carrie is "some journalist". It was hard to read beacause there were so many names to remember, so many stories that weren't related, then it jumped to real life, past, present... everything. I got through half the book and i'm debating whether to continue. So far, it's awful. Stick to the show! Find a differeny author to get life and love advice from.
