I loved three of the stories in this book; Lena's story frustrated me beyond measure. Partly because Kostos, a character I can't stand, came back and Lena left the wonderful painter for him...which makes no sense in my mind. I loved Carmen's story in this book, probably because I love the theatre and Shakespeare (and especially both together). Tibby became slightly annoying in this work. I know that she is afraid that she is pregnant, but she had no right to treat her boyfriend that way. While I have enjoyed reading the adventures of the Sisterhood since I was young, I was glad when I finished reading this last book. I wanted to let the characters go, free to continue on in my mind. I believe that the reason the characters in this last book annoyed me is that I was ready to let the characters get on with their lives. (It might also be due to the movie though. I can't read these books now without thinking of the actresses who played them). (show less)

  The first book is the best. The second is pretty good. The third is just okay. This one picks back up, but it's not the best book I've ever read. If you want a light series that deals very simply with major life issues and makes you feel good in spite of real pain, this might be it.

  I like the ending. I have read some criticism of the trip to Greece at the end... some think it's too unrealistic or too cliche or too cheesy... my thought?? If you wanted realistic and serious, why did you... (show more)

  I like the ending. I have read some criticism of the trip to Greece at the end... some think it's too unrealistic or too cliche or too cheesy... my thought?? If you wanted realistic and serious, why did you pick up this series? Are you really that bad of a judge of book quality? Yes, it is cheesy, cliche, and unrealistic, but that's why I like it.

  My only criticism is that the book handles about every major emotional issue relevant to teenage girls, yet neglects to communicate how serious some of the girls' choices really are. But I would criticize myself with the same thought I had above. As long as you know these things when you pick up the book, you'll like it. Expectations make all the difference.

  This book was a great way to end the series. I always get sad at the end of a book series, and I had a little bit of an idea how this was going to end because of the movie. But, I was really amazed at the character development. During this book, I hated Carmen, Tibby, and Bee at some point. I hated how Bridget was able to blow off her boyfriend and her Professor's family because she was drawn by desire. I had seen her grow past that over the past two summers. I hated Carmen's infatuation wi... (show more)

I hated how Bridget was able to blow off her boyfriend and her Professor's family because she was drawn by desire. I had seen her grow past that over the past two summers. I hated Carmen's infatuation with Julia - it was like she didn't have a mind of her own and was swayed only by Julia's opinion. She had been so strong in the past. I hated it when Tibby, who was clearly in love with Brian, blew off the man who loved her and her family more than either of them could express. I didn't want her to live out of fear. But, the processes that they all went through were invaluable. It brought them back where they should be, with one another. It brought them to a deeper revelation of their lives and who they wanted to be. In the end, the pants were gone, but they were all right where they needed to be. (show less)
