final reading group post

Title: Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants
By: Ann Brashares
Time: 2 1/2 hours
Pages: 210-326

There are a lot of things that this book and  movie so different.  By watching the movie i indicated a lot of differences.  I depicted that Tibby seemed more innocent in the book than in the movie.  Part of it was because you could actually see that Tibby is pretty much goth and has piercings and is allways seeming down.  In the book they made it seem like Tibby is not the odd one of the group even though she kind of is.  In the movie when the four girls meet to have the ritual and declare the rules of the pance they go to a fashion department but in the book they go into a school.  One of the major differences from the book than the movie is that kustos' and Lina's grandparents hate eachother but in the book they are friends. This changes Lina's whole lifeline. One of the other things i spotted is that Eric seems to be into Bridget a lot more in the book than in the movie. I guess that is because you could see him watch her.  Im glad they didnt do the freak dancing seen.


question:  If you had to be one of the charecters and live the exact same timeline that they did who would it be???
(i did this as a seperate post but it didn't show)SORRY!!!

Ya, I agree with you about all of the differences. Especially the difference with Kusto because it did change Lena's personality in many ways and that seems odd that the people that made the movie would change it in such a drastic way. Either way, I still love the book and the move!!

I am actually not sure what character I would be. I mean, none of them actually match my personality. Most of them are either weird like me, have bad girl moments like me, or are totally opposite from me. It's a hard choice...
