Summary: Incredible!...
Review: This book is perfect for any girl out there who just wants to relax and read. I related to almost everything in the book, and loved the way it was written. It's an easy and great read!..

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: The writing won me over.
Review: I have to admit that I was very skeptical about this book. The whole traveling pants concept seemed incredibly corny. But as a twentysomething lover of YA books, I had to give it a look. The fact that I was able to get past that hokey conceit and enjoy this book is a testimonial to the power of Bradshare's talent. Older teens might balk at some of the aggressively earnest bits (I never would have picked up this up in high school) but I can definitely see why tweens and younger teens love it. Compelling characters, vivid writing and a positive message. Well done.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: BRAVO!
Review: A funny, but serious book telling the story of 4 friends possessing "magical" pants and their lives throughout the summer while they are apart.

I am thankful for reading this book. I still can't believe this is the author's first novel. It's amazing.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I LOVE THIS BOOK!!!!!!
Review: This was really the best book I have ever read! I could not put it down! It is really great for anyone who is going off to college and really close to their friends, it makes you appreciate all the little things.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Surprising Depth~
Review: When I picked up The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, I was expecting a light-hearted fun read about the trials & tribulations of being a teen-aged girl. The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants is all of these things, but surprisingly more. This story of 4 best friends, who spend their first summer apart from each other if full of depth and life. Meet Carmen, Tibby, Bridget and Lena, all the best of friends, but each a unique and distinct character with their own set of strengths and weaknesses. Your "summer" will be spent with Carmen, learning how to cope with a divorced mom and dad and the issues that a split family faces. With Tibby, you will learn through adorable Bailey, how it isn't the years you've been on this earth that make you wise, but what you do with the time you've been given, and how to treasue what is truly of value. Run along with Bridget, the athlete and soccer star, who has to discover who she is without the presence of a mom. And finally, experience Greece with Lena, who learns something about what our heritages mean about ourselves and a taste at first and true loves. What binds these friends through out the summer is this shared pair of magical blue jeans that look perfect on each one of them, despite their different body shapes & sizes. But at the end of the summer, you'll see that what binds these girls is far more than a pair of traveling pants.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best book I ever read!
Review: "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" was the BEST book that I ever read. I thought it looked kind of interesting so I checked it out of the library and am I glad that I did! I suggest that anyone in their teens should read it!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great book!!!
Review: This was a great book. It's about 4 girls (Tibby, Carmen, Lena, and Bridget) and they are the best of friends. This summer, instead of spending it together, they go their separate ways to different parts of the world. Lena is going to Greece with her grandmother and grandfather. Bridget is going to a soccer camp. Tibby, who feels sorry for herself, is stuck at home. Carmen is going to visit her father. Before they leave they find a pair of "Magical" pants. These pants fit all four girls perfectly and any girl would know that it's really hard to find a pair of pants that will fit you and 3 of your best friends perfectly, it just doesn't happen. They decided to send the pants to each other during the summer and when they come together at the end of the summer, they would write down what they did on them.
This story has everything. Ann Brashares did a great job on this book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: a lot of fun!
Review: I am 27 years old, and was worried that this book would be more geared towards younger girls. I was pleasantly surprised!! I enjoyed it very much and I could still relate to the young girls in the storyline. I couldn't put it down and read it in two days.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Traveling Pants
Review: This is an awesome book that embraces friendships and summer days, by the time the book is done you are laughing an crying at the same time. You feel like you know Bridget, Lena, Carmen, and Tilly, adn spent the summer with them.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fun and Enjoyable
Review: A magical pair of pants symbolizes love and friendship for best friends, Lena, Tibby, Bridget and Carmen. This same pair of pants fits each different girl, perfectly. The girls make up rules to govern the use of the Traveling Pants. The pants travel among the girls on their first summer apart from each other. Each girl has experiences that allow her to learn something new about herself.
This first novel by author Ann Brashares is fun and enjoyable. The story includes letters written by the girls. A variety of quotations are used between the chapters, like, "Today is the tomorrow we worried about yesterday." Anonymous.
Read the story of the Traveling Pants and you will laugh and cry with Lena, Tibby, Bridget and Carmen.
