This my review:
5/5 stars
Do you ever find a book that kindles within you your passion
for reading? A book that helps you
remember how good it feels to read, and how much you truly love books? I don’t know about you, but even though I
constantly read, I don’t always feel this way.
Yes, I love reading, but I find it rare to find a book that just really
resonates with me. A book that I can
easily put on my list of top twenty books I’ve ever read. But this book is one of those for me. It sounds silly, but after reading this book I
felt unstoppable. I felt a passion and
motivation for life, and I couldn’t get this book, and its characters, out of
my mind.
They’re characters you all know. And maybe that is why this book meant so much
to me. I grew up with these characters,
in one way or another, and I’ve identified with all of them at some point. And this book kind of closed the door on
their lives and legacy, leaving me content and happy and full. (Though I’d totally be thrilled if the author
decides to publish another book.) The
storyline isn’t predictable, and it contains some levels of heaviness and
darkness. But in just the right
amounts. In the end, I promise you’ll
feel satisfied. If you have ever read
the books or watched the movies, I highly, highly recommend that you take a few
hours to read this. It short, it will inspire
you to appreciate. You’ll appreciate
your past, your friends, your circumstances, and the things you have in
store. Read this and appreciate your
life a little more.
And I'm including the synopsis for all you dedicated followers.
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.
