Först vill jag bara passa på att tacka alla som är med i min tävling. Tack :) Det har bara gått några dagar och redan har massor av personer gått med. Det är så kul att hålla i en tävling att jag är säker på att jag kommer göra det om och om igen :)
Och till boken jag längtar efter denna vecka: Sisterhood Everlasting av Ann Brashares. Systrar i jeans var den serie jag älskade förr och den har fortfarande en stor plats i mitt hjärta. Men jag har inte läst böckerna på fem år, så minns dem inte så mycket längre. När jag däremot läste att det skulle komma en femte (!) bok i serien, som utspelar sig då Tibby, Lena, Carmen och Bridget är vuxna så visste jag att jag måste läsa om serien och denna bok. Trodde aldrig att man skulle få läsa någonting mer om dessa karaktärer, så det var en väldigt trevlig överraskning!
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.

OHOOOOOOO!!! Jag vågar inte läsa den kursiverade texten av rädsla för att spoila för mig själv men detta är ju som tidig jul för mitt 13årige inre jag! Läste för några månader en annan bok av henne, My Name Is Memory, den var också bra men inte alls som magin med systar i jeans.
