Sisterhood Everlasting by Ann Brashares

Sisterhood Everlasting is the fifth book in the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants series, which is a series that I love. Ann Brashares continues the story of the fabulous sisterhood: Lena, Bee, Tibby, and Carmen 10 years after the 4th book had left them. The sisterhood has distanced over time and they have each moved forward with their lives, but they still think of each other often.

Lena is teaching art in Rhode Island and still wondering what could have been with Kostos. Bee is living with her longtime boyfriend, Eric, but is restless and unsure of her future. Tibby is living in Australia with her longtime boyfriend, Brian. And Carmen is living her dream of being an actress in NYC and is engaged to be married, but she misses the closeness of her three best friends.

In an attempt to bring the sisterhood back together, Tibby surprises the other three with tickets to reunite in Greece, where the traveling pants were lost years before. Tragedy strikes and shocks the sisterhood. They are each faced with dealing with a tragic loss and each of their lives are changed forever as they are forced to take a harsh look at their lives.

The book is a fabulous summer read and I highly recommend it. I have two recommendations for everyone...first, DO NOT read anything about this book on Barnes and Noble or Amazon, there are some stupid people who spoiled the book. Second, keep some kleenex close while reading the book. If you are anything like me, you will need them. I loved the book, pick it up!!
