Publisher's summary

A snarky guide to life inspired by the most underrated character on Sex and the City, from the creators of the Instagram sensation @everyoutfitonSATC

When Sex and the City premiered, many were hesitant to identify as the Miranda of their social circle—after all, sarcasm, workaholism, and dubious fashion choices are rarely considered aspirational. However, in the two-plus decades since her television debut, our culture has finally caught up with this forward-thinking icon and all she represents. The truth is, Miranda Hobbes is the feminist hero that we deserve—we were all just too busy obsessing over Carrie’s corset tops to notice it at first.

We Should All Be Mirandas is a celebration of a certain red-headed lawyer and the legions of fans who relate to her pragmatic, no-bullshit approach to work, love, and sex. Written by two self-proclaimed Mirandas, this humorous manifesto distills Ms. Hobbes’ core principles into a strategic guide for navigating life’s inevitable ups and downs. In it, you’ll learn to:

  • Overcome your internalized Mirandaphobia
  • Cope with humiliating sexual encounters
  • Make Google Docs your bitch
  • Dump that Skipper that you’ve been dating
  • Embrace your bad hair days

And much more!

With sharp, sardonic humor and fantastic send-ups to the series’ most iconic moments, We Should All Be Mirandas is the perfect gift for fashionistas, pop culture mavens, and every woman who has dared to eat cake out of the garbage.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Featured Article: Sex and the City—Books vs. Show


It might be time to have a bit of a Sex and the City refresher before diving back into the fabulous, fun, flirty, and hilarious world of Carrie Bradshaw and her friends. You might know that Sex and the City is based loosely on the book of the same name by Candace Bushnell. But just how loosely based are we talking? If you listened to the Sex and the City audiobook, would you even recognize Carrie, Miranda, Charlotte, and Samantha? Or would you be getting an entirely different story? Read on for our guide to the differences between the Sex and the City book and the show to find out.

Entertaining Satire, But No PDF, Wear Headphones

I'm a Miranda. I knew this long before this book. I'm about 90% Miranda with a Samatha rising in that I'm not nearly as much of a needy clothing horse as Carrie or a traditional Princess like Charlotte. And that's ok. Overall, the book is mostly a satirical approach to the character's archetype and how to both spot them in the wild, seeing her in ourselves and how to live out our happiest, truest selves without having to apologize for it. Ok, so we're super awkward at both baby and bridal showers. We have non-traditional ideas about marriage and having kids (some of us). And we're more concerned about the state of our IRA than the latest trends. While this is littered with some not suitable for open office listening about sexual situations, the book, overall is a fun listen.

My only complaint is the authors keep noting referenced material that should have been included (digital PDF). The authors make mention of this from the beginning and throughout the book make said references to an accompanying document that did not exist as of this writing.
