Sisterhood Everlasting (Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants)

A Novel

De: Ann Brashares

Narrado por: Angela Goethals

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.

Praise for The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants

“Funny, perceptive, and moving.”—USA Today

“A feel-good novel of substance.”—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

The Sisterhood Lives on Forever in Our Hearts.

This was a very sweet story of a friendship that never ends... Or disappoints for that matter. The story is a bit slow in the middle but it provides necessary insight into the lives of four friends who have forgotten who they really are along the journey of their adult lives.

A disappointing ending to a generally meh story

The whole series has something to be desired but I was hoping this final book would wrap up the loose ends and end in characters finally being good to themselves. However, with mental health issues that make it impossible for characters to hold a job that are left untreated, having a disease be the focus of the story that the author obviously didn't research at all, a birth control method that neither the character so obviously the author didn't actually understand and the continued notion that cheating in a relationship is actually okay if it's true love the story fell very flat and was hard to get through at times. Save yourself the time and credit, read the summary on wiki and choose a different book to invest in.

Awesome Ending.

Fantastic novel. Definitely the most tragic but the best ending g all things considered. I genuinely LOVED it.

my heart hurts

This is not the happy go lucky ending I was expecting for the sisterhood. Prepare yourself for sadness. It was nonetheless a worthwhile experience. This novel cuts straight to the hardship of real life and threw me into a ride I was not expecting. Listening to the story was so much like experiencing it with the girls. Art should disturb the comfortable and comfort the disturbed - mission accomplished.

From Tragic to Togetherness

When i started this book, i was excited and then the story was so drastically different than the previous 4, that i really didnt like it. I was frustrated with the characters and how much they had changed and grown apart. About half way through the plot began to come together and I started to enjoy the story again. I loved the last half and was pleased with how it ended. I could read on about these women’s lives and them growing up together. What a fantastic journey and how I wish I had a group of friends that I had grown up with.
