Summary: stunning
Review: This book is just as good as the first one, if not better. The emotions are much stronger and it is gritty. I found it more confusing though to follow than the first one because there are a lot more names. If you liked The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants you will not be disappointed with this sequel.

Summary: It's Almost as Good as the First Summer!
Review: I loved the first book, The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. I also think that anyone who liked it will also love reading about the second summer. Lena's story, I believe, is by far the most interesting story in the book. What happens between her and Kostos at the end is so sad and so good that you can't stop reading. Bridget's adventure is also quite interesting. You find out a lot about her past, but you also get to see Bridget transform into the girl everyone knows and loves again. Tibby's story, in my opinion, is the most boring story in the book. All you see is that she makes a movie she, gets a friend and mother mad at her, then realizes her mistakes and makes the biography about Bailey she should have been making from the beginning. Carmen was a bit of a brat. I mean, she ruins the only relationship her mother has because she was jealous of how happy her mom was, drags along a boyfriend she doesn't like to show she can be happy with a guy, and then complains about being unhappy. This is what made the story, for me, not as good as the first book. All through these stories though, you see a fifth story taking place. You get to see the mothers of the Septembers start their friendship once again. These stories ,pieced together, make and final product that ,other than some minor problems, something everyone will love.

Summary: As good as the first!
Review: Although I'm techically too old, at 17, to read and enjoy YA fiction as much as I still do, I have to say that The Second Summer of the Sisterhood was just as pleasing as the first. One of my favorite things about these books are the flaws present in the characters. Carmen, as usual, is guilty of letting her temper run away with her, and Lena once again has to struggle with her own passivity when it comes to facing life and dealing with its effects, good and bad. Meanwhile, Tibby has to remember how not to be judgmental and to look at a person from the inside out, and Bridget has to find herself again. They all, of course, learn and grow from their experiences, though, keeping the characters intriguing and dynamic. I read the book in one sitting and enjoyed it immensely. Parts of it left me feeling anxious for the girls, parts gave me the warm fuzzies, and parts left me heartbroken on their behalf. All of it was vivid and compelling, and I would recommend it a woman of any age.

Summary: Surpasses the sequel
Review: I have to admit that I thoroughly enjoyed the first book, but I didn't feel an immense connection to the four teens (or at least not all of them) nor did I have a strong need to find out "what happens next". However, I decided to read the sequel, since I did enjoy the first, and I was absolutely flattened by how incredible this sequel is! Other than Bailey's death, the girls didn't have to face nearly the ammount of trials and difficult situations and decisions as they do in the second book. I found myself relating to and caring about all of the girls and their loved ones. I cried on several occasions, smiled, and laughed out loud at the events. The depth of the friendship the girls have really shows when they have to help and support each other through all of their dilemmas. I also felt that the motif about the pants not "working their magic" (or in Bee's case, fitting) until the girls had either faced their fears or done what's right was fabulous. Even if you haven't been through a particular experience like any of the girl's have had (although their parental relations with their mother's are sure to hit home) you will still find yourself learning lessons and relating things to your past experiences. I recommend this to any avid reader. It has great depth, lessons, character, humor, and friendship.

Summary: Joy and Heartbreak
Review: I live in New Zealand and when I saw this nook in the bookstore I almost jumped with joy. I absolutely loved the 1st book and was looking forward to reading the 2nd.
And it was just as incredible as the first!!It was romantic, heartwrenching, real life and I loved it....... until I got to the part with Kostos and Lenas relationship.
Then I hated it so much. Don't get me wrong, it's just as incredible as the first book and fabulous to read but I only hope that Ann Brashares writes another 3rd book to write the wrongs of the 2nd.

Summary: The Second Summer, As Good As The First
Review: Ann Brashares does it again. She pulls the reader into the life of Bridget, Carmen, Lena, and Tibby. The last book made us familiar with the girls of the sisterhood and this summer we delve a little deeper into their ongoing stories.
Carmen does not improve her brattiness much from last summer and Bridget begins to heal, Tibby finally stands up for what is right, and Lena loses what she had. Do not read this book without reading the first. (Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants). Feel free to buy it at the same time as the first because you will wish you had it the minute you finish the first.

Summary: An Excelent Sequal
Review: While the first book was great, some things were no finished. What would happen to Bee? What would happen with Lena and Kostos? Would Tibby remember what Baily taught her? The Second Summer of the Sisterhood answers these. Bridget heads off to Alabama, and, under the name Gilda, does odd jobs for her grandmother, like cleaning out the attic. In doing this, Bee wants to face her past. Carmen's mother stats going out. Carmen is worried, and jelous that her mother is having a better realtionship than Carmen is. Tibby takes a film course at a nearby college. And while she makes new friends, old ones remind her of Baily and her message. Lena gets a job at a boutique for middle aged women, and as she tries to find out about a love from her mother's past, she longs to comfron one from her own. Ann Brashers does a wonderful job. The book has the same wonderful qualities the first possessed. Fans of the book couldn't ask for a better sequal. This ia a must for anyone who read the first book.

Summary: The Second Summer of the Sisterhood
Review: The Second Summer of the Sisterhood by Ann Brashares, was an emotionally packed, page turning novel. It out-does the first of the two book series, The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, with it's in depth relationships and surprise ending. The "Pants", a pair of worn consignment jeans, are found by Carmen in the first book and she shares them with her best friends Tibby, Lena and Bridget. They find the Pants to hold some kind of magic because, despite varying builds, they look amazing on each girl. In The Second Summer of the Sisterhood, the girls find their own adventures in love, whether sought for or stumbled upon. Bridget sets out to find more on her past and her late mother, by jumping on a bus and seeking her unfamiliar grandmother. Tibby finds herself in a college campus at a film camp. Carmen is alluded by the Pants, when they chose her mother and faces jealousy and a future understanding. The most shocking surprise comes to Lena, who falls madly in love with the strong, reliable, gentleman Kostos, who she met in Greece, only to find out more about him when she comes to visit due to her Grandfather passing. The Second Summer of the Sisterhood is an amazing account of teen life, trials and triumphs, that will literally make you cry and laugh and permanently change your out look on life.
