Book Description:
The Pants first came to us at the perfect moment. That is, when we were splitting up for the first time. It was two summers ago when they first worked their magic, and last summer when they shook up our lives once again. You see, we don't wear the Pants year-round. We let them rest so they are extra powerful when summer comes. (There was the time this spring when Carmen wore them to her mom's wedding, but that was a special case.)

Now we're facing our last summer together. In September we go to college. And it's not like one of those TV shows where all of us magically turn up at the same college. We're going to four different colleges in four different cities (but all within four hours of one another (that was our one rule). We're headed off to start our real lives.

Tomorrow night at Gilda's we'll launch the Pants on their third summer voyage. Tomorrow begins the time of our lives. It's when we'll need our Pants the most.

Not as detailed around the pants as the other two books. Mainly the book is about the girls solving their own problems. You even kind of forget who has the pants as they are rarely mentioned. But still a good read.

I really like following these 4 girls. They each have such different personalities. You can't help but relate to them in some way. An enjoyable, quick read!

Another entertaining story of the sisterhood of the traveling pants. If you enjoyed the other two, read this one, you'll love it.

Yet again Ann Brashares gives us an awesome Pants book! I could not put this book down! The girls are growing up but nothing can keep them apart. Great for teens and twenties!

This is a great book in a wonderful series. I have loved all of the Girls in Pants books and was very pleased with this one as well.

Although I really enjoyed this book (not as good as the first, but liked it better than the second), I was annoyed by a few inconsistencies. I could have sworn that the author, in the first book, mentioned that the girls didn't attend the same school (except for Carmen and Lena maybe), but in this one she alludes to them attending the same graduation ceremony (if she meant they all went to watch one of the girls graduate, it wasn't made very clear). Also, the author mentioned in one of the other books how Carmen and her mother moved to the apartment when her father left in elementary school, but in this book she mentions having her nursery in that bedroom in the apartment when she was little. However, these few little things didn't take away from the book itself. The characters seem older now, perhaps not wiser in all things, but wiser in some things. Tibby's story continues to be my favorite and the character of Carmen is finally growing on me since this time she has a different story beyond getting used to dad's love life (1st book) and getting used to mom's love life (2nd book).

It's the summer before the sisterhood departs for college... their last real summer together before they head off to start their grown-up lives. It's the time when they need their Pants the most.

Another enjoyable book in Brashares' series about a group of 4 friends growing up.
