Hi blog followers,
So, I just realized that I never posted my reading reflection
#4 from last week.
As you properly know, I finished reading “The Help”. I
decided to start reading a book called “The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants”
by Ann Brashares. This book (from what I have read on the back of the book) is
about a pair of jeans that seem to bring four best friends together over one
summer.
Book: The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants
Author: Ann
Brashares
Pages Read: 1-10
(prologue)
I want to first
start off with a quote at the beginning of this book…
“Not all who
wander are lost”
-J.R.R. Tolkien
One question I
have right on the first page is “why is the speaker talking about eating
dogs”???
Two questions I
have are “Who is speaking right now at the beginning of the book and is this
person a big part of the story?”
I also want to
know if this person bought the pants? because it says “when I got home, I put
the pants in the back of my closet”. If this person did, why did the author
decide to put that this person doesn’t like second hand clothes.
I agree with this
person that second hand clothes are gross but I guess that some people have no
choice then to wear second hand clothes.
Why is the speaker
talking about past summers if they are not important in the story? (at least I
don’t think they are important to the story so far).
I think it is
interesting that all four best friends were born within seventeen days of each
other. This probably is why they sound so close.
What happened to
Bridget’s mother?
I predict that
the pants are going to bring the best friends closer then ever.
I like that the
author decided to tell the reader about the past to set up the story but I don’t
like that the author waited until the end of the prologue to tell us who is
talking.
