The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants by Ann Brashares


My rating: 5 of 5 stars

My Thoughts:
I don't think that I was expecting this book to be quite as intense as it turned out to be. Intense in a good way, mind you, but unexpected. Lena was my favorite of the girls, though in some ways Carmen's story caught my attention more. I didn't particularly like Tibby's story, but I thought she did a fantastic job on Bee. (I do, however, wish she'd been a little bit less vague about what happened between Bee and Eric. Not graphic details or anything, but I was never quite clear if they just made out or actually had sex. On the other hand, if she's not setting Bee up to be manic depressive, I'll be incredibly shocked. Seriously.) Overall it was an awesome book, and now I need to get my hands on the other three. :)

I'm fairly certain they did indeed 'do the do', as my Child Development teacher would say.

I don't know, I was ten when I read it, sooo...

I'm fairly sure they did as well - and like I said I certainly didn't want her to write all the details - but at some point, to *some one* (even if it's the narrator to the reader, for gods' sake) can we please get confirmation? Because there's a whole range of things there that could have happened.
