Review: This book was so great that I read it in one day!! It is about four teenage girls who have been friends forever and this is the first summer that they are going to be apart. The story is just about what happens to each girl. It was a really fun read and I could see some of myself and some of my friends from high school in each of these characters! The book made me laugh and at the same time made me value all of the great friends that I have!!

Summary: Tip Top of the Line
Review: Wow. This book captures the true essence of life long friendship. It made me feel good about myself and my friends. It tells the story of these girls, Carmen, Bridgette, Lena, and Tibby, and how they all go different places in the summer while being connected by this pair of pants. At first this idea seemed incredibly corny, stupid, niave, etc., but it was nothing but excellent. I recommended it to all my friends and family. The thing is, all these girls go through so many of the things most teenagers go through and it made it so true to life. It is definetly an exquisite read.

Summary: Second best book of the year.
Review: I enjoyed this book, even though it was a very simple minded idea. It was still interesting, and involved us in the the lives of four very different girls. My only problem with it is I'd just finished reading a sleeper, SIGHTS by Susanna Vance, that is the best thing Random House ever published for teens. That book was so honestly written and so SMART, TRAVELING PANTS didn't have a chance. I can recommend both, but TP is a lighter read.

Summary: The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants
Review: The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, by Ann Brashares, is an outstanding realistic fictional book you can't put down. The characters in this book come alive as you read through it. Their emotions are so real that it is easy to relate to the characters. The description is so astonishing and thorough that you connect with their personalities. I think Ann Brashares is trying to send a message about the significance of friendship, while mixing in the "magical pants" as a symbol of comfort. The pants remind them of each other. The writing is excellent, very straightforward. I would recommend this book to any age group because the plot is incredibly interesting and enjoyable. Carmen, Lena, Bridgett, and Tibby always spend their summer vacation together, but not this one. This summer by being apart they understand how valuable their friendship really is. They find a pair of old pants in one of their closets the night before they leave. The pants accent each one of their figures, so they decide to share them by each taking the pants twice, during their trips. Wearing the pants gives them courage, confidence, and self respect. Now they will need each other more than ever and realize friendship is more important than anything.

Review: I read 'The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants' a week or so ago, unsure of whether or not I would like it. I loved reading about Bridget, Carmen, Tibby, and Lena, and their summers apart. They really reminded me of me and my best friend! This book made me laugh, it made me gasp, it made me cry, and it kept me reading it for hours on end! This is the best book I have ever read, and I definetly think that others should read it too! I hope that Anne Brashers writes a sequel soon!

Summary: One of the best books I've ever read!
Review: This is an awebook book! The characters are very real. As a 15 year old girl, I really could relate to Lena, Carmen, Tibby, and Bridget. This book will make you laugh hysterically, cry, then laugh again. The girls' letters to each other in their own point of view are so funny! It feels as if the characters are real instead of figures of the author's imagination. I've read it over and over again. I hope they make a movie out of this clever and funny, must - read book.

Summary: Fantastic and I don't usually gush over a book!
Review: A very touching/moving story without being overly dramatic and "I can't believe all this happened to these few kids". Life really does throw you a loop and always when your expectations are 360 degrees from what 'does' actually happen. I highly recommend this book for any teen, boy or girl. I should know, I'm a young adult library assistant!
