Ten years after their wonderful vacation in Santorini, the four "sisters" (Carmen, Lena, Bridget and Tibby) are distanced from each other. Sure, they all saw each other at Carmen's big celebration at the bar...but that was two years ago. They are each living their own separate lives; Carmen is a TV actress in New York with an iPhone, makeovers and a massively packed agenda; Lena teaches art classes and lives in a tiny apartment in Providence; Bridget lives in California with her boyfriend Eric; and Tibby has moved to Australia with her boyfriend Brian, but she becomes even more uncommunicative with her friends the longer she stays in Australia.
Finally, Lena, Carmen and Bridget all receive letters from Tibby containing plane tickets and letters stating that they will reunite in Santorini in October. They all know how excited they are to get there and how much their friendship means to each other, but none of them know how much this trip, and some future letters, will change their lives.
There is tragedy, heartbreak, bitterness and sadness, but also compassion, empathy, kindness and the joy that only true friendship can bring. Each page will have you more gripped than the next one as you seek to learn what becomes of these sisters, their love interests, their passions and their friendship.
It's a great read, very well-written and absolutely perfectly planned. If you couldn't get enough of the other books, this one will surely satisfy your thirst. Just keep a tissue box nearby, just in case.
