Rating:  Summary: Amazing Review: Sure, the basis of the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, by Ann Brashares, may seem a bit weird, or even cheesy. After all it tells the story of magical Pants- ordinary thrift-shop jeans that miraculosly fit each of the four "sisters" perfectly. There's Lena, the beautiful, yet shy girl who is off to spend the summer in Greece with her grandparents. There's Bridget, the strong, sexy, and full-of-energy teenager who is heading to Baja California to participate in a prestigious soccer camp. There's Carmen, the saucy girl with a sometimes uncontrollable temper, off to spend the summer with her father, who she only sees once or twice a year. Then there's Tibby, the bold girl who is left at home all alone. Over the summer, the Pants travel the world, absorbing each of the sister's life-changing summer.Somehow, I didn't find this book cheesy at all. Though I was expecting it to be a funny book (which it wasn't in most places), I really enjoyed it. It told of typical teenage struggles- with love, courage, and just life in general. At some points it brought me close to tears, at others, it had me nearly screaming at the characters. But overall, this book was just simply heart-touching. The writing was plain and simple, and though Ann Brashares doesn't have a miraculous gift with words, she has a knack for knowing what teenage girls want to read. And she was able to write a powerful novel that I guarantee any young teenage girl will enjoy.
Rating:  Summary: The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants Review: This has to be the best book I have ever read! The author is extremly talented. You would think it would be one of those books were an adult writes the story and has NO idea what teens are thinking, but it seemed like Ann was inside my head. This is one of those books you never get tired of. I have went back and read parts of the book about twenty times. After I read the book I tried to go back and see what charcter I'm most like but I couldn't. I found that I was like all of them, I wasn't brave like Bee but I was athletic. I have a bad temper like Carma, nervous a certain boy won't like me like Lena, and fell insecure about my apperance like Tib. This is the best book, every teenage girl in America has to read this book.
Rating:  Summary: Great book. Review: I read the sisterhood of the traveling pants a couple of months ago. I am 15, and i highly recommend it to a teenage girl. It shows how relationships with friends can last and so on. I enjoyed it, and was finished with it in less than a week since i couldnt put it down when i had freetime on my hands.
Rating:  Summary: THIS IS THE BEST BOOK! Review: This a great book for girls around the ages of 12 to 18.Alot of girls can relate to Carmen,Tibby,Bridget,and Lena.All of the girls are just like any other teenage girl.
Rating:  Summary: Inappropriate for those under 16 Review: I ...bought this book for my 12 year old. I discovered, along with her, various inappropriate and detailed accounts of sexual encounters, thoughts and desires. It may well be an excellent book for an older reader...
Rating:  Summary: this is the best Review: this book is the best. i recomend it for everyone!!!!! my stepmom read it and she loved it too! the sisterhood of the travling pants is a book for girls all ages. i wish there was a sequal!!!!!
Rating:  Summary: The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants Review: I really enjoyed this book. It was challenging to read, but very hard to put down. I enjoyed it so much because I could relate to it in my own life. The book was filled with several real-life situations. It made me think about things before I acted on them. At the beginning I was laughing; at the end I was crying. But one of the most important things I got was that true friends will be there forever.
Rating:  Summary: The BEST book ever! Review: The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants is the best book I ever read! It is about four completely different girls, Carmen, Tibby, Bridget, and Lena, who are the best of friends. For the first time in their lives, they won't be together for summer vacation. So they send each other letters and the pants to remember their sisterhood and their friendship. This book is so dramatic, it is filled with such emotion. You just don't want to stop reading it. It should seriously be made into a movie, it would win best picture! READ THIS BOOK!
Rating:  Summary: Starts out slow Review: When I started reading this it was way too happy and simplistic for me. Reading this book was a chore till the middle of the book when I found myself enjoying the situations the girls found themselves in. I gave this book only 4 stars because it took me 4 or 5 days to read when I read a book twice it's size in 2 days. I think this book would be good for someone around the age of 12. I think I was just too old for the book.
Rating:  Summary: One of the best books I have ever read. Review: This book rocks! It tells about 4 girls' summer vacations. All of the girls have their own personality. My favorite character was Bridget. I Strongly Reccommend This Book.
