Waiting on Wednesday (March 30)

Waiting on Wednesday was started by Jill at Breaking the Spine. This weekly meme shares the upcoming books that I'm most excited about.

Sisterhood Everlasting (Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 5) by Ann Brashares

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.

T
hen 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.

I loved the movie but I haven't read the books yet but I'm sure they are way better.

Here is my W.O.W

Oh wow. I thought the series was over with just four books (and I was so annoyed by the last one). Now that you mentioned this book, I'm both excited and wary (but mostly excited--I can't wait to reunite with these characters again!). Thanks for posting this as your WoW!

Oh wow I can't believe that there's going to be another book. I haven't read the books but have seen the movie and loved it.

I didn't even know that there were still books in this series coming out! I've seen the movies but I've never read the books. I'm sure that the books are probably better lol I'll definitely be looking into this! Here's our WoW: http://solomonnewlyweds.blogspot.com/ We're new followers!

The jeans books never appealed to me. I think they felt too young. But this one looks amazing. I want this bad. Great find!
