For those of you who as teenagers, or tweens, picked up the traveling pants novels and fell in love with Tibby, Carmen, Lena, and Bee then your in for a big surprise; the girls are back! Ann Brashares has written a fantastic novel set a decade after the last in the traveling pants series, Forever in Blue, that answers questions like what happened when they lost the pants? and did they grow up? If you're looking for a good read this summer, and aren't afraid for a little tear shed, then this will fulfill your need.
In case you didn't already know I love to read books, and since I've been reading so many lately I thought I'd share my thoughts on them with you :) Alas I have had to leave employment at Chapters to concentrate on school but never fear for many a books will still be read!

Sisterhood Everlasting
For those of you who as teenagers, or tweens, picked up the traveling pants novels and fell in love with Tibby, Carmen, Lena, and Bee then your in for a big surprise; the girls are back! Ann Brashares has written a fantastic novel set a decade after the last in the traveling pants series, Forever in Blue, that answers questions like what happened when they lost the pants? and did they grow up? If you're looking for a good read this summer, and aren't afraid for a little tear shed, then this will fulfill your need.
Clockwork Angel
After finishing Cassandra Clare's first four books in The Mortal Instrument series I figured I should probably read the prequel series. Knowing there was a slight chance that she might make tie ins between the two series it just seemed like the smart thing to do in order to keep on top of things, plus I loved the other books so the odds were in my favour for this one! Essentially if you're a fan of The Moral Instrument series then you will enjoy, or find you enjoy more especially if you like steampunk, the first installment in her The Infernal Devices series. With witty characters and some familiar faces she takes us on a whirlwind adventure through the streets of 1870s London.
