I never thought I would HATE a book this much. This book was so bad that I actually put it away after 3 chapters in order to start and finish other books instead. After a few months I finally picked it up again, because I was bored, and finished it and boy-do I wish I didn't! I HATED the end! And...
If I had read this in Middle School I think I would have given it 4 or even 4.5 stars. I am a HUGE fan of the Sisterhood series so I was excited to read this book, but it is definitely for younger readers. There are many references to the Sisterhood as an added bonus for those who have read that ...
I was so eager to see how Tibby, Bridgette, Lena and Carmen were going into their 30's...the first few chapters left me devastated, heartbroken and honestly wishing I never started it. For those who are avid Friends enthusiasts...I wanted to stick it in the freezer. But I decided I needed to full...
It was definitely an awesome concept. Reincarnation and a very few select people remember all their past lives. And one man who remembers all of them and the girl he loved in all of them. However they are always seperated and she never remembers. But somehow he can remind her. You read the whole ...
Sometimes I really like to read a good YA book. There is something about the friendship, the angst, the adventure of growing up that makes me feel at the same time nostalgic and young. Ann Brashares is one of my favorite authors of this type of story. I can admit that I LOVED the 'Sisterhood of t...
Wow. Where do I even start? I was absolutely shocked to hear the beloved series of my middle school days had quietly released a fifth book... And one set TEN YEARS LATER.Why, Ann Brashares? The "ten years later" storylines are a cliche kiss of death. Think of the disappointing end of Harry Potter...
Another great book in this series! Although, admittedly, maybe not as good as the rest.The fabulous Bee is back with a vengeance. At the end of book 1, Eric made her lose her spark. So book 2 was all about her learning to love herself again. Now, the Bee I fell in love with in book 1 was back! An...
I've read this series a couple times.I keep going back because despite what a part of my brain keeps screaming at me, I really do enjoy it. I've just re-read it again.I don't know why I do this to myself.At some points it always drags me in, and I'm convinced that these are great books, and I'm e...
Also reviewed at my blog, Sassy & Dangerous! http://sassyanddangerous.blogspot.mx/ I had hoped this book would change my mind about the series, but, unfortunately, it didn't. I kept putting off finishing this book because of how much it bored me. The characters were the same, annoying, bratty an...
This book did amazing things to my stomach. Not in the realms of sculpture, but that roller coaster feeling that dips up and down inside your belly. The essence of nervous, fluttering butterflies you get of talking to your crush or holding hands with a guy for the first time and your palms are al...
Disclaimer: I did not read the whole book. I read about 75% of it and then just skipped to the end. My thoughts on this book are a reflection of the portions I did read (which was most of it, trolls, so back off.) Hmmm. Well, this was a curious little book indeed. I'm not sure if I was surprised ...
She was going back to her olive grove. No. His olive grove. When she reached her spot, she saw that the colors had changed since June. There was more yellow in the grass, different wildflowers. The olives on the trees were grown fatter—they were teenagers now. The breeze was stronger. The meltimi...
