Editorial Review:
Ages 12 and up. Best buds Tibby, Carmen, Lena and Bridget are back with their magical pair of shared jeans in Girls in Pants: The Third Summer of the Sisterhood. Each summer brings new and difficult challenges, as the perennially separated friends discover afresh this last season before college. Tibby struggles with the idea of close friend Brian becoming her boyfriend, and their fragile relationship is soon tested by a tragedy in her immediate family. Carmen doesn't know how to react when she finds out that her middle-aged mom is pregnant, and Bridget is unpleasantly surprised to be reunited with the boy who broke her heart two summers ago. Finally, Lena, still coming to terms with the loss of her first love, tries to convince her strict father that art school is a better career path than Greek restaurant management. But through every crisis, each girl is assured of the love and support of the created sisterhood when she pulls on the denim armor of the cherished, and by now, a bit fragrant ("Rule # 1. You must never wash the Pants.") Traveling Pants.
Full of homey platitudes about life, love and the pursuit of perfect jeans, Girls in Pants occasionally reads like a lengthy Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul entry. But often that's precisely the kind of friendly reassurance female readers are looking for, and fans of the wildly popular series who've journeyed every summer with the "Septembers" will find much to laugh and cry about in this volume. --Jennifer Hubert
The Pants first came to us at the perfect moment. That is, when we were splitting up for the first time. It was two summers ago when they first worked their magic, and last summer when they shook up our lives once again. You see, we don’t wear the Pants year-round. We let them rest so they are extra powerful when summer comes. (There was the time this spring when Carmen wore them to her mom’s wedding, but that was a special case.)Now we’re facing our last summer together. In September we go to college. And it’s not like one of those TV shows where all of us magically turn up at the same college. We’re going to four different colleges in four different cities (but all within four hours of one another—that was our one rule). We’re headed off to start our real lives. Tomorrow night at Gilda’s we’ll launch the Pants on their third summer voyage. Tomorrow begins the time of our lives. It’s when we’ll need our Pants the most.

Rating:  - Great!
I absolutely love this series on the traveling pants. While it's been many years since I was a teenager, it's not hard to remember feeling the emotions these girls feel. These books are so well written, following along as the girls grow and mature through various life situations and stages. You cry and you laugh. I highly recommend this entire series.
Rating: - Third Summer
Graduation! It's a big step for the sisterhood and this book is even better than the first two.
Rating: - Older readers will like it also
I am 25 and I loved this series and this book is as good as the first.
Rating:  - Another Summer with the Pants
This third installment is a welcome addition to the series. I couldn't help but feel that it was more predictable than the previous books.
Overall, I enjoyed the book and sensed that each of the characters were maturing and seemingly more introspective in their lives. I look forward to reading the next books.
Rating: - Still hooked
I still find myself drawn into the book and hard to put it down. The characters continue to grow so much!!
