I Lied

OK, so I said I was going to read a book called Thorn In My Heart, but I decided I didn't want to read that book just yet, so I am the first book of The Sisterhood of The Traveling Pants.

The book is pretty much just like the movie except that Lena has a sister that goes with her to Greece. Lena's sister is definitely the out-going one of the two. Lena's sister meets a waiter in Greece and spends a lot of time with him. She tries to get Lena to go out with them but Lena prefers to be alone, until she meets a guy of her own, Costas. I like how they meet and how Costas knows that their families do not get along, but doesn't tell Lena and she ends up kind of getting into trouble for seeing him. It's funny how Lena's first "love" is very secret and she has to sneak around her grandparents backs to see him.

Bridget's story is very interesting and you can't get bored with it. Bridget kind of strikes me as a who doesn't want to deal with her mothers , so she tries to fill her time with excitement and fun. At the camp she goes to she falls for one of the counselors, or coaches, which of course are completely off limits, but this doesn't stop Bridget, it just makes things even more exciting and makes her want him even more. She ends up making some chooses that she later regrets, but she is stuck with the memories forever.

Carmen planned on spending the Summer with her dad, but has a few extra visitors that she was not planning on. Carmen shows that when someone you love or you want to love them but they have really hurt you, you can't just sit around and do nothing because that is not going to get you anywhere. You have talk to them, it may be hard and you may be afraid that they won't understand or that they might get mad, but not talking will only mess everything up worse and you will be miserable.

Libby on the other hand got to stay home for the Summer and meets someone who she never intended to meet and at first wishes she hadn't. This girt named Bailey, who seems like a pain in the butt and the most annoying kid ever, actually teaches a great lesson about life. She shows that things can't be taken granted for, you have to take some chances in life, and you have to live life to the fullest. You never know what will happen, so the best thing to do is to be curious, learn everything that you can and live the way that you want to, not the way that someone else wants you to.
