Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants books

E, LoR · 01-16-2006, 09:25 PM

I really really loved these books, and I was just wondering what anybody else thought of them.

cee2lee2 · 01-19-2006, 10:46 PM

Haven't read the books but saw the movie. Wasn't expecting much from it (saw it on a plane trip) and was pleasantly surprised. Liked the way the girls friendship was exressed. Saw the Ya-Ya Sisterhood movie a few years before (also on a plane

) and thought this was a much better movie.

OOh, I loved these books so much !!!
I've seen the movies some weeks ago, unfortunatly it hasn't got out in cinemas in France or Belgium, so I just saw it in DVD, and I thought it was quite good.
Do you know if a 4th book will be written ?

Quite sure it will

, those books are booming. I saw the movie in theaters (for sis' sake). I have my criticisms, but I thought America Ferrera was good, and Amber Tamblyn too.

I love them!!!!!! But I'm not shure there will ever be more.... sad as it is...

tolkienfan · 05-10-2006, 01:01 AM

I read the first one, tons of people recommended it to me, so I had high expectations. But I actually did not like it. I have not seen the movie yet.

Elanor's Angel · 05-10-2006, 06:01 PM

Why did'nt you like them?

tolkienfan · 05-11-2006, 07:28 PM

I didn't like the beginning, it was very confusing. It seemed to me like parts were kind of badly written, and unrealistic. The main reason however is Bridget. She didn't feel like a real person to me, and she was a very bad girl. The story didn't really seem to me much about friendship. I didn't really like much in Carmen or Lena's stories either. I did like Tibby and Bailey though.

Elanor's Angel · 05-11-2006, 08:33 PM

I really liked the style.

E, LoR · 05-13-2006, 08:09 PM

i don't think that bridget was a "bad girl" exactly. I think she was just impulsive and out of control. I can actually relate to her a little. Carmen too. Sometimes Tibby. I liked it because the situations were fairly real, except exaggerated a little maybe.

Elanor's Angel · 05-13-2006, 09:54 PM

Well, they are dramatic. I have friends who are worse. it's what makes them, them.

E, LoR · 05-14-2006, 09:14 AM

i have friends like all the SotP characters. It's kind of strange...

The rule can die.

Elanor's Angel · 05-14-2006, 02:25 PM

Yeah. That is majorly cool!
(Die rule! Die a painful, painful death!)

Maybe you're right about Bridget. I did feel very sorry for her at the end.

E, LoR · 05-14-2006, 08:04 PM

I like her through out all the books. She's always got an interesting story.

Elanor's Angel · 05-14-2006, 08:09 PM

Have you read them all? I have.

E, LoR · 05-14-2006, 08:15 PM

yeah.. im so freaking obsessed! I own the DVD too

(DEATH TO THE RULE x2)

Elanor's Angel · 05-14-2006, 08:18 PM

Me too! I have a copy on each by my bed! (With LOTR and HP and DWD!!)

E, LoR · 05-14-2006, 08:21 PM
