"As I read this series I know I would have enjoyed this a lot more when I identified with all the teenage angst instead of with the mothers. I also would like to just enjoy the book instead of constantly asking myself when I will give these books to my daughter. Considering the relationship between Kostos and Lena and the few sex scenes she will probably discover the series herself first. The characters are widely diverse so pretty much any kid could see themselve in one of them. At its best it is a little brain candy for the teenage set, with a reasonable amount of teenage drama."

" Another amazing sequel to the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 1! "
— Teacool97, 2/16/2014" Lena's heart is broken, Bee's changed but finds letters from her grandmother ranging from 6 years ago! Tibby discovers more about herself and friends and carmen's dealing with her mother. So much going on. It's a good book but it's those kinds of books that just, you want to change the character back to the way they were. We'll have to see for the third book, Girls In Pants!! "
— Marisa, 2/2/2014" I started the Pants series because my 11 year old daughter asked if she could read it. She whizzed through the first three books on her summer break and I trailed behind. I appreciate many aspect of Brashares writing. She manages to include painful and real topics but she treats them with care and respect. It is a delightful series about true friendship. "
— Sandi, 1/24/2014" Great romance, terrific dialogue, and awesome friendships. "
— Noa, 1/15/2014" I was reading this, but i got really bored and didn't care about the plot "
— Allie, 1/7/2014" This was my favorite of the traveling pants series. I think the characters matured and were more developed. I really liked each story even more than I did in the first one - it was fun to see where they went/what happened to them. "
— Nancy, 1/5/2014" These are easy dock reads. "
— Jayne, 12/3/2013" this is my favourite one!!! "
— Madeleineg, 11/22/2013" just amazing can't wait to read the next one "
— Jessica, 11/15/2013" Not nearly as good as the first, I could barely get past the beginning. But as the story progressed, it got better. "
— Holly, 11/14/2013" such a great series. so much love and friendship, the characters gather your heart amongst their own. "
— Abbey, 11/6/2013Ann Brashares grew up in Chevy Chase, Maryland, with her three brothers and attended a Quaker school in the DC area until majoring in philosophy at Barnard College. Expecting to continue studying philosophy in graduate school, she took a year off after college to work as an editor, hoping to save money for school. Loving her job, she never went to graduate school, and instead, remained in New York City and worked as an editor for many years before making the transition from editor to full-time writer. She is now the author of the phenomenal five-million-copies-selling Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants series, and New York Times bestselling adult novels The Last Summer (of You and Me) and My Name Is Memory. She lives in Brooklyn with her husband and their three children.
