Sisterhood Soundtrack
This is an outstanding book! The four main characters are:

Carmen: Goes to an acting school and figures out the true meaning of friendship.
Tibby: Goes to a film school, and goes through a rough time with her boyfriend Brian.
Bridget: Goes to an archeologal dig in Turkey and meets someone new who ISN"T her boyfriend.
Lena: Meets Leo at an art class. The two of them have a very memorable summer.

Thoughout this story of love, friendship, and tears, the four girls realize how much the pants have changed them and how much they'll miss them...

5 Thumbs UP!!!
These books are a great tool for life as well as a good read for anyone. Mainly teenage girls, this triple scoop of excitement drama, and romance is just what the doctor ordered. It not only is a great book to read just because, but if you ever need advice u can pick up the books and start reading. I rate it 5 thumbs way up!!!

Forever in Blue by Ann Brashares
Hi, I am Shannen. I know for a fact that tonnes of twelve year olds (Like Me) have/or are reading this book. I was thoroughly enjoying this book until I got to the sex scene with Brian and Tibby. Ok, this is a fact of life, but it got really, really, in depth to the fact that is was kinda gross. Otherwise, it's all good. I'd probably rate it 7/10 because of the sex scene. I also think Ann should come to Australia for book signing. I'll admit, that is the BEST friendship book/momento I've ver come across. I'm moving away soon and my gift to my bestie, Erica, was the sisterhood movie. Anyway, keep it up Ann, you're doing very, very well!

Sisterhood
Have you ever felt a special connection between you and a book? I know that this may sound silly, but with the book Forever in Blue by Ann Brashares I felt a special connection. The way the author wrote this story made me feel as though I was with Carmen Tibby Lena and Bridget in the story. After I was finished with this book I was sad that the series was over. The first three books really got to me and then I could not wait for the fourth. This is just like the Harry Potter series, wonderful until it is over.

Sisterhood down falls
Hi my name is Lena Kalagaros and I am a big fan of the Sisterhood. but to tell the truth I think forever in blue was not very good. Carmen, Tibby, Bridget, and Lena (not me) are not as interesting they are too grown up and mature they don't hang out as much and the fist 5 pages disappointed me. SISTERHOOD 1 and SISTERHOOD 2 and SISTERHOOD 3 you rock 2 thumbs up but SISTERHOOD 4 FOREVER IN BLUE one thumb up and one down Ann Brashares I am so disappointed.

Forever In Blue, Forever Disapointed
I loved the first three books in the series. In them Brashares writing is clean, concise, and her story lines always well thought out, but this last book clearly lacked the time and effort spent on the other three. In the book she flounders attempting to find an interesting story line for every girl, not to mention an embarrassing amount of typos for a professionally published book. The girls never spend any time together, and the ending is disappointing at best. My worst fear, that Ann had moved on to bigger and better things in the middle of writing this book, was realized when I saw that she just came out with a new book, for more adult readers. As an adult reader of the Pants series, I am truly disappointed that she abandoned these characters, and the fans who loved them, for another prospect. The thing that's most upsetting is she can't go back and fix it, it's forever published, and forever disappointing.
