About the Book It’s the first day of school—the first day of junior year, to be exact—and best friends Jade, Maddie, Hailey, and Grace know they have to make this one great. Though each girl must deal with her own hardship—whether it be bad boyfriends or trouble at home—they know friendship can carry them through anything. Enter Savannah Taylor, a beautiful and charming exchange student all the way from Australia. She is sweet, supportive, and understanding—everything Queen Bee Jade is not. She quickly finds her way into the girls’ friend group, but is she bringing drama with her? About the Author Falia Koppe lives in Ohio with her husband. She is an avid pet lover and is passionate about animal rights.

Despite having jobs and men that they love, Tibby, Lena, Carmen, and Bridget know something is missing: the closeness that once sustained them. Carmen is a successful actress in New York, engaged to be married, but misses her friends. Lena finds solace in her art, teaching in Rhode Island, but still thinks of Kostos and the road she didn't take. Bridget lives with her longtime boyfriend, Eric, in San Francisco, and though a part of her wants to settle down, a bigger part can't seem to shed her old restlessness. When Tibby sends the others plane tickets for a reunion they all breathlessly await, it will change their lives forever, but in ways none of them ever expected. The traveling pants are gone, but the sisterhood lasts forever.

Many hold a deep fascination with Mormonism but erroneously think of it as a secret religion that celebrates polygamy and confinement. Most outsiders regard Latter-day Saint women as submissive and pitiable. In The Sisterhood, award-winning author Dorothy Allred Solomon takes us inside the lives of women of the faith. She focuses on the roles of Mormon women in the nineteenth, twentieth, and twenty-first centuries, including fascinating personal stories about family, children, and husbands. She takes us into the lives of the High Priestesses of the Church, draws on histories sustained by the most thorough genealogical records in the world, and addresses the wives of polygamists. The Sisterhood sheds light on an expanding and complex religion and offers a long overdue portrait of Mormonism and women.
