Description

A snarky guide to life inspired by the most underrated character on Sex and the City, from the creators of the Instagram sensation @everyoutfitonSATC. The book takes inspiration from the popular TV series “Sex and the City” and focuses on the character Miranda Hobbes, who is often considered one of the show’s more grounded and pragmatic characters.
 
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.
 
Miranda Hobbes, portrayed by actress Cynthia Nixon, is a successful lawyer in the series known for her sharp wit, intelligence, and independence. While the other three main characters (Carrie, Charlotte, and Samantha) often take center stage for their romantic and lifestyle adventures, Miranda’s character tends to be more focused on her career, personal growth, and navigating life’s challenges with a sense of humor and resilience.


“We Should All Be Mirandas” celebrates Miranda as a feminist icon and a source of inspiration for those who value independence, ambition, and authenticity. The book draws life lessons from Miranda’s character, exploring themes like self-confidence, career success, friendships, and personal growth.
 
WE SHOULD ALL BE MIRANDAS is a celebration of a certain redheaded 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 so much more!
 
It’s important to note that the book is written in a lighthearted and humorous tone, and it’s not a traditional self-help book. Instead, it uses the character of Miranda as a lens through which to examine and celebrate certain life principles. With sharp, sardonic humor and fantastic send-ups to the series’ most iconic moments, It is the perfect gift for fashionistas, pop culture mavens, and every woman who has dared to eat cake out of the garbage.
 
Some key takeaways and themes from the book include:

◆ Embracing independence: Miranda is portrayed as a strong, independent woman who prioritizes her career and personal growth, inspiring readers to embrace their own independence and pursue their goals.

◆ Challenging societal expectations: The book highlights Miranda’s refusal to conform to traditional gender roles and societal expectations, encouraging readers to question and challenge these norms in their own lives.

◆ Self-acceptance and body positivity: Miranda’s journey towards self-acceptance and body positivity is explored, providing readers with valuable lessons in self-love and embracing their unique qualities.

◆ Friendship and support: The importance of strong friendships and a support system is emphasized through Miranda’s relationships with her friends, demonstrating the power of connection and support in navigating life’s challenges

◆ Balancing work and personal life: Miranda’s struggles with work-life balance resonate with many readers, and the book offers insights and strategies for finding harmony between career and personal life.
 
If you’re a fan of “Sex and the City” or interested in themes related to feminism, individuality, and personal development, you may find “We Should All Be Mirandas” an entertaining and thought-provoking read. It also pays tribute to Miranda Hobbes as a character who, despite being considered underrated by some, has qualities and values worth celebrating.
