Summary: Best Book Ever
Review: I love this book! It's a great book about 4 best friends who are spending their first summer away from each other. Beautiful Lena is going to Greece to meet her grandparents, Athletic Bridget is going to soccer camp in Baja California, Carmen is going to see her dad in South Carolina and gets a big surprise, and Tibby is staying home to work at her summer job (how boring right? but her life changes after a special encounter with an obnoxious 12 year old).
This is a great book for anyone who likes any of the following themes: Friendship, Romance, Sports, Divorce, Family, Death etc.
I think everyone could relate their personality to atleast one of these characters! It's A FANTASTIC book. Hope ya read it!

Review: I LOVED THIS BOOK!! January 2002
I had a hard time putting it down. I just couldn't wait to see what life-changing events would take place in each of the girls' lives over the course of the summer. I didn't want the summer to end! I loved the way that I could visualize everything that was happening.
I can't wait to buy this book so that I can read it over and over again. It is a book with a lot of heart. I like that.
Go to your library or bookstore and get this book. You will be glad you did.

Review: I purchased this book for my daughter and she read the book in one night! She laughed, smiled and was so intrigued by this book she kept stopping to tell me what was happening. Upon finishing this book she went directly on the web to see if the author had written any other novels.

Summary: A great girl book
Review: In a light, fun-to-read fashion, Ann Brashares tells a delightful story of 4 girls who are apart for their first summer ever. They each are different and set out to have the summer of their lives and all because of a pair of jeans. These jeans are found at a thrift store and fit each girl perfectly, even though all 4 are different in size and weight, and makes them feel beautiful. They agree to send the jeans back and forth to each other and each are wearing the jeans when something important happens to them. A great book to read on a summer afternoon.

Summary: Can't Wait 4 the Sequel
Review: In the beginning, the reader is introduced to four girls, Lena, Tibby, Bridget, and Carmen. They are close friends who discover magical pants that fit them all, and make each one of them feel great. They decide to share them, and send them to one another during the summer, which, for once, they spend apart. I, myself, was intrested mainly by the stories of Lena and Bridget, but the stories were touching(mostly Tibby's) and I LOVED this book, overall. I can't wait for the second one:)

Summary: This book was soooo funny!!!!
Review: I loved this book! I couldn't stop reading it. She knows how to write and write she does. It was SO hilarious! There's this one part where Lena is skinny dipping and the guy who her grandmother is trying to set her up with sees her. She gets all mad, hurries to get her clothes back on (which end up going on all backwards and inside out), and stomps off home. She gets home and says, "Kostos is not a nice boy!" which leads her grandma to think that Kostos tried to have sex with her. Her grandma tells her grandpa who goes over and starts beating up Kostos' grandpa and all the while Lena is feeling terrible! That's one of the funniest parts! I kept feeling like I should read parts of this book to other people because it was just that funny.

Summary: A Nice Story About High School Girls
Review: This book made me laugh and cry. It's about 4 girls in the summer before their junior year in high school. They are all apart for the summer and use the pants as a way to stay in touch, kind of like a symbol of their friendship. If you remember having 4 best friends and all the times you shared or if you currently are in high school and can relate to this, you will love this book. It didn't turn out the way that I foresaw and was very entertaining. It only took me 2 days to read it. This would be a great gift for a girl 12-16 years old who likes to read. Or maybe one of your best friends from high school that you want to get something for so that she can "remember when".
