Sweet Valley high meets Sex and the City

Candace Bushnell is continuing the Sex and the City franchise with new books aimed at teenagers. The books will be called the Carrie Diaries and will focus on Carrie Bradshaw in high school on her quest to become a famous writer.

I'm not sure if Bushnell plans to write the story in the 80s - the actual decade in which Bradshaw would have attended high school. Hopefully so - otherwise it will be the literary version of gossip girl.

Who is Carrie Bradshaw without the others? If nothing else, Sex and the City was about friendship, the only constant in the tumultuous series about sex and relationships. Which make me wonder who would be in Bradshaw's clique? Below is a clip of Kim Cattrall is the film Porky's - i.e. Samantha Jones in high school.
