Forever in Blue: The Fourth Summer of the Sisterhood

Brashares, Ann. Forever in Blue: The Fourth Summer of the Sisterhood. Book 4 of the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants series. 2007. 384p. ISBN 9780385729369. Available at FIC BRA on the library shelves.




When the last summer ended, the sisterhood headed in different directions, each girl attending college in a different state. Now as their first year of college ends, the girls find themselves back in Maryland for a few days, all, that is, except Carmen who is heading to a theater festival in Vermont. With Bridget flying to Turkey for an archeological dig, and Tibby working in a video store and taking summer classes in New York City, Lena finds herself the only of the four friends left in town. Despite the fact that they can’t get together, they decide to continue their traveling pants ritual for another summer. The pants, however, have a different idea and will attempt to get the girls back together.


In the concluding book of the series, we see all four girls grow and truly become adults, with difficult decisions to make. However, we are reminded that strong bonds and family are what you create, and that in times of needs friends are always there. And even though friends may be apart most of the time, they remain together forever.
