Set between the Upper East Side of Manhattan and a country enclave known as The Village, Is There Still Sex in the City? gathers Bushnell’s signature short, sharp, satirical commentaries on the love and dating habits of middle-aged men and women as they continue to navigate the ever-modernizing world of relationships. Throughout, Bushnell documents 21st-century dating phenomena, such as the “Unintended Cub Situation” in which a sensible older woman suddenly becomes the love interest of a much younger man, the “Mona Lisa” Treatment - a vaginal restorative surgery often recommended to middle-aged women, and what it’s really like to go on Tinder dates as a 50-something divorcee. Bushnell also updates one of her most celebrated stories from Sex and the City, “The Bicycle Boys”, which is about a breed of New York men who are always trying to bring their bikes up to women’s apartments. Once an anomaly, Bushnell charts their new ubiquity, in addition to where and how to do your own man-stalking via bicycle (and whether or not it’s worth it).

In Is There Still Sex in The City?, Bushnell looks at love and life from all angles - marriage and children, divorce and bereavement, and the very real pressures women face to maintain their youth and have it all. This is a pull-no-punches social commentary and an indispensable companion to one of the most revolutionary dating books of the 20th century.

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.

I had read some mean negative reviews about this book. Instead I really truly enjoyed it. I always enjoyed the TV show sex and the city but have to admit the girls were very spoiled and money oriented. This book instead talks about the financial struggles of starting over in your middle age. It focuses on the friendships the struggles and the journey that these women make together. I liked the humor in the story and it really truly seemed to reflect where I am in my life right now. The reviews mention Kevin and vaginal rejuvenation Excedrin these are told him very biting humor and in no way and Dorset. Instead the focus of the book is on growth and knowing that there is life after you are in your fifties and focusing on yourself and your accomplishments and your friendships and perhaps love.

Wistful Sardonic look at Middle age

This book is reminiscent of season one Sex and the City. Brutally honest about dating over 50. Her best book yet!

I was a little unsure of the book based on the reviews, but decided to give it a try. I’m glad I did. Candace Bushnell’s wit was abound and I really enjoyed the narrator as well. As someone who’s reached middle age it was fun to read things I could relate to. And it mad me not so down on getting older. Great book!

It’s A Good One!
