megisfictional 's review for:
The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants
by Ann Brashares
this bitch walked, strutted that runway, so that the summer i turned pretty could run!!!! so that all the YA summer coming of age books could run!!!
this book is not perfect in any way but i love it so dearly. i think this is one of those instances where i do like the movie more, but i still love this book. i read it in middle school, and i fee like i didn’t fully appreciate it but reading it as an adult made me cry. the friendship between these girls is everything i wanted as a child and i feel like i have it now?? it’s so weird because the characters are in high school but i just love stories about female friendships and girlhood and this is the epitome of that!
it also SCREAMS 2000s. this is the perfect nostalgic read if you ever just want something to warm your heart. it makes me feel so safe and warm. the writing is pretty childish but that’s what makes it so sweet. it speaks to the 2000s kids.
the one thing that bothered me about this book was the endless head hopping. one minute we’re in Tibby’s perspective, then Bridget’s, then Carmen’s, then Lena’s, and there’s never any indication of the change. i would have liked if individual chapters were devoted to each girl and their POVs rather than the random head hopping, it did kind of take me out of the story.
