the second summer of the sisterhood, by Ann Brashares

pg.36-76
Lena found a job (her mom finds her one) at Basia's, a boutique. Tibby already gone for colloge at The Williamston Campus. Bee already arrived at Alabama to meet her grandmom, but the interesting fact is that she did not stay at her grandmom, instead staying at her grandmom place she stayed at a house which rented by an old lady, Mrs.Bennett. Bee went at her grandmom house as Gilda Tomko, Tomko is Tibby last name (Tabitha Tomko Rollins). Gilda Tomko (Bee) offered Greta (her grandmom) a job, a help around the house, Greta accepted it without knowing her at all, in fact, she even telling Gilda about her granddaughter! everyone in Alabama don't recognize Bee at all, she has totally changed, not skin and not blonde anymore.
Tibby still has a felling that her mom has shipped her away from her home. but she started to made a friends with Alex and Maura from NY. Tibby felt that they are a cool persons to be with because at the first day of school they didn't show any attention to make a new friends.
Carmen has the first turn to use the pants and after that is Lena turns. she used it for her dating time which she think was not successed. she found out that her mom is dating again with her partner at job. jonnathan porter, her date didn't show any grace after the date so Carmen think her date was horrible.
Lena found out that her ex boyfriend (Kostos) has a new girlfriend at Greece. Her sister, Effie told her the shocked news when Lena was working and she was wearing the pants. Lena said that she doesn't care if Kostos has a girlfriend now. Inside her heart she still remember all he memories that she had with Kostos, she is still thinking of him a lot.

The stories getting more interesting. Tibby has a project in her class to make a movie about a person that has played an immportant role in her life and she tried to get rid of Halley out of her mind. Halley is a little girl who really close with Tibby for the whole last summer. Halley died because cancer. Tibby was so sad until now she still can't forget Halley. Halley is the first kid who really close with Tibby. Even her own sister and brother are not close with Tibby.
The problem with Carmen is she still doesn't have a convidence and the fact that she knew her mom date again has ruined her date.
I think Lena has found a good job but the problem with her is still related with Kostos, her ex. She tried to convince averyone that she forgot Kostos already but the fact is she's not.
About Bee, maybe she will have a wonderful summer at Alabama because she started to remember about her past which she forgot. She began to remember about her grandpa and all her skills at soccer. At the first summer of travelling past she still playing with balls but after her mom passed she changed into someone else.
