It’s a nice book. It doesn’t quite have the magic that the pants provided for the sisterhood. I think that willows were a nice metaphor, but there wasn’t very much done with it. It might just be my love for the sisterhood that didn’t let me enjoy this book as much as I could have. Everything just felt a little bit off I guess.

There are lots of connections with the Sisterhood novels here, which is good because the formula worked so well the first time. Plus it was nice to see some of the old characters and see how the Sisterhood impacted the town. The girls here are less connected, but their stories still work well together and it gives a different take on friendship than the Sisterhood novels. I'm not sure I got as attached to Polly, Jo and Alma as I did to Lena, Tibby, Carmen and Bridget in their first book, but it is hard to say after 4 books and 2 movies with the Sisterhood. Overall I enjoyed the characters and their individual stories and I will read more as they are published.

I have been following this series for a while. I am so curious with the whole characters development. I like the moral messages from this story. Miss Brashares done a good job writing her story.
But I want something more.

Definitely not on par with the rest of the Sisterhood series, but not too bad. I received it as a free book, so I'm glad I didn't pay for the hardcover that I have.

Yeah, girl power! This book about 3 soon-to-be freshmen in H.S. was actually kind of inspiring. Though I am sad at how they turned Effie's character into a major bee-yotch. I kind of liked her in the Sisterhood books.
