Ann Brashares and narrator Angela Goethals reintroduce the beloved members of the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants as they enter their thirties. The pants are long gone. Carmen, Lena, Tibby, and Bee are separated by thousands of miles, and that distance tugs at their heartstrings. When a surprise reunion is orchestrated by Tibby, everyone is ecstatic about finally being back together, but a series of unexpected events challenges everything they thought they knew about each other. Goethals infuses humor, excitement, sadness, and longing into the girls’ voices as the chapters unfold from alternating points of view. Goethals’s nuanced tones are well matched to the matured personalities of the girls and help to wrap up the series in a way that will leave listeners duly moved, if not fully satisfied.

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Ann Brashares comes the welcome return of the characters whose friendship became a touchstone for a generation. Now Tibby, Lena, Carmen, and Bridget have grown up, starting their lives on their own. And though the jeans they shared are long gone, the sisterhood is everlasting.
Despite having jobs and men that they love, each knows that something is missing: the closeness that once sustained them. Carmen is a successful actress in New York, engaged to be married, but misses her friends. Lena finds solace in her art, teaching in Rhode Island, but still thinks of Kostos and the road she didn't take. Bridget lives with her longtime boyfriend, Eric, in San Francisco, and though a part of her wants to settle down, a bigger part can't seem to shed her old restlessness.
Then Tibby reaches out to bridge the distance, sending the others plane tickets for a reunion that they all breathlessly await. And indeed, it will change their lives forever-but in ways that none of them could ever have expected.
As moving and life-changing as an encounter with long-lost best friends, Sisterhood Everlasting is a powerful story about growing up, losing your way, and finding the courage to create a new one.
