This was on of my favorite of the series. The four girls, Tibby, Carmen, Lena and Bridget are all going to collage next year and none of them are going to the same collage. Tibby, Carmon, and Lena are all staying at home. But, Bridget is going to a soccer camp in Pennsylvania, where she ends up seeing Eric, who was a coach at another soccer camp. She doesn't know what to do about her feelings for him. Tibby thought she was going to have a normal summer, but her close friend, Bryan, wants to be more. Carmen also thought her summer was going to be normal but now she found out her mother is pregnant and Carmen is still getting use to her new step-father. Lena was having a great summer taking art classes, and then her father came to a class and is now forbidding her to go to a collage specifically for art. Lena is trying to make a portfolio for a scholarship before it's too late. I enjoyed this book because there were many parts that were filled with suspense. I also enjoyed how each girl was experiencing different things but are still connected through the pants. In a way, I am kind of like the four main characters, because I have two really close friends that live in up-state New York and we visit each other in July. We stay in touch by writing or emailing each other. ELN 07/03/07
