Publisher Description

Return to the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants . . . ten years later   From #1 New York Times bestselling author Ann Brashares comes the welcome return of the characters whose friendship became a touchstone for a generation. Now Tibby, Lena, Carmen, and Bridget have grown up, starting their lives on their own. And though the jeans they shared are long gone, the sisterhood is everlasting. Despite having jobs and men that they love, each knows that something is missing: the closeness that once sustained them. Carmen is a successful actress in New York, engaged to be married, but misses her friends. Lena finds solace in her art, teaching in Rhode Island, but still thinks of Kostos and the road she didn’t take. Bridget lives with her longtime boyfriend, Eric, in San Francisco, and though a part of her wants to settle down, a bigger part can’t seem to shed her old restlessness. Then Tibby reaches out to bridge the distance, sending the others plane tickets for a reunion that they all breathlessly await. And indeed, it will change their lives forever—but in ways that none of them could ever have expected. As moving and life-changing as an encounter with long-lost best friends, Sisterhood Everlasting is a powerful story about growing up, losing your way, and finding the courage to create a new one.

"I didn't expect to ever see another Sisterhood book after the fourth, so I was excited when I found out there would be a fifth. I finally got around to read it, and I thought it was a very good ending to the series. It was definitely a sad book to read, and, okay, not always entirely realistic, but I think the real strength of Ann Brashares writing is in the characters. The girls seem almost real to me, and they're very easy to relate too. When I read about Lena in this book, I see myself. When I read about the others, I can see my own friends in them. (It might help that I'm almost the same age as the four girls.) Definitely a book worth reading."

    " It was an interesting way to end the series, and I liked it. I am glad there was lots of closure to end the long journey that is the Sisterhood. I can't imagine a better way to write the end than how this was written. "

    " This book made me MAD. Not sad like other people. I was really ticked that the story turned the way it did. Additionally, since the first four books are young adult reads, and could easily be in the book list of middle schoolers, fast forwarding the "sisters" into adulthood doesn't jive. Not to mention the heavy heavy stuff they have to deal with. I wouldn't want my middle schooler reading this 5th book, at least not without me there to discuss & process it with her. It worked okay for me since I didn't read any of them until I was already 30, but this one doesn't seem like a tween/teen book. "

    " Really giving this 4.5 stars. I loved this last installment of the traveling pants series. What made it so great was Brashares didn't keep the girls the same age, she aged them 10 years, it made it so much easier to relate to the girls. I've always loved this series and was very sad to see it come to an end. "

    " I thought the story line was ...unexpected... for the sisterhood of the traveling pants series. I enjoyed reading it (just like all the others!) but this definitely had an adult feel to it - a little bit darker. "

    " Yes there were a lot of problems with it and yes at times I was very angry with most, if not all of, the characters and yet I couldn't put it down until I finished. I started crying about 1/2 way through and have only just stopped. It was cheezy and contrived and yet beautiful at the same time. "
