Girls in Pants _The Third Summer of the Sisterhood_ Ann Brashares (p.1 - p.5)

This book is the third book in a series of four books in a series of four books: The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, The Second Summer of the Sisterhood, Girls in Pants: The Third Summer of the Sisterhood and Forever in Blue: The Fourth Summer of the Sisterhood. The series are talk about four girls who found the magic jeans that fit all four of them perfectly, even though they’re all different sizes. They are Tibby (the rebel), Carmen (the drama queen), Lena (the shy and beautiful), and Bridget (the soccer jock). They are best friends a long times. When they found the magic jeans, actually it has brought to them lots of lucky while they were wearing it. That’s why they really love these pants and they should have taken turns to keep these pants. Each book is talk about a summer and this book that I am reading is the third summer. This summer is the last summer before college and they are going to attend to four difference colleges in three difference cities. Maybe it will be difference with two last books.

In the first chapter, the teller’s name is Tibby. She told that this pants has a great power to change and make four normal teenager girls have pretty lives of amazing adventures. These pants help them feel loved and safety. Of course, it makes them better people and better friends. It is true.

The four girls became friends each other by chance. Their mom took the same a prenatal aerobics class eighteen years ago and then they each gave birth to a baby girl in September. Of course, each girl has difference character. In this chapter, Tibby used the metaphor of car to describe the four of them and I tried to understand and explain what she means. Carmen is easy to make a mess of things and get mad with anything is disordered but actually she’s a lot of fun. Lena is easygoing girl, she is easy on the environment but sometimes she does something wrong and she should have help. Bridget or Bee is strong girl and she can do everything really good. So what's about Tibby? What did she say about herself? She thought she likes a bike, maybe she means she is a normal girl and nothing special.

In September, they go to college. Bee goes to Brown- one of colleges that she applied, Lena goes to art school at the Rhode Island School of Design- that her parents advised, Carmen goes to Williams- her dream’s school and Tibby goes to film school at NYU. The day after tomorrow, they’ll never all live in the same place again and that is a big change in their life. That’s why they will launch the Pants on their third summer voyage in tomorrow night.

Why did I choose this book? Because I saw the movie found on the first book of this series and I'm interested about it. I know this summary is so long , I try to make it be shorter than this one. This book has a lot of new vocabulary and it isn't easy to understand because it is psychological. If I understand what it means, I might understand what they are feeling and thinking; and if I understand what they are feeling and thinking, I must understand what it means. It's so hard. But I like to discover human thinking and feeling. I won't give up. I'll make my next summary is easy to understand and everybody will be interested about this series.

P/s: This isn't everything I have already read in last week, I will finish it in next week.
