I was so excited when I ran across this book while shelving at the library.  Another book about the Sisterhood girls I grew up with through highschool? Wow! It was an unexpected, but totally welcome surprise and I wasn't disappointed.

Review:
A book you won't be able to put down. The four best friends from the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants series are now almost thirty and still as interesting as ever. This time you find them all living in different places and dealing with all sorts of problems. From being a semi-famous actress, to a teacher who spends too much time alone waiting for her life to begin. However, an unexpected tragedy hits and the women are sent scrambling to cope with their loss and sort out their quickly unraveling lives. What paths will these ladies finally choose and will they all pick the right road?


Sisterhood Everlasting was also filled with some amazing quotes which are too good not to share :)


“You get older and you learn there is one sentence just four worlds long and if you can say it to yourself it offers more comfort than almost any other. It goes like this… Ready ”
 “Ready.”
 “At least I tried.”

“Maybe you think you’ll be entitled to more happiness later by forgoing all of it now, but it doesn’t work that way. Happiness takes as much practice as unhappiness does. It’s by living that you live more. By waiting you wait more. Every waiting day makes your life a little less. Every lonely day makes you a little smaller. Every day you put off your life makes you less capable of living it.”

“She loved her mother and depended on her mother, and yet every single word her mother said annoyed her.” (This one made me laugh out loud, waking up my fiance from his nap next to me, because it is so true sometimes.)
