This was a cute book and a really quick read, which wasn’t a bad thing at all. I couldn’t quite get myself to believe in the magic of the jeans, but that could just be because I’m not much of a jeans girl. I also found myself much more interested in Carmen’s and Tibby’s stories than Lena’s and Beatrice’s. Not at all surprising since I identified with the first two who seem to be your average type of girls while Lena and Beatrice are described as quite extraordinary in looks and popularity.

Curiously I haven’t been left with a huge desire to read the next two installments in the series, but I am quite ready to see the movie. But I suspect Alexis Bledel has a lot to do with that. The girl is just too cute for words.
