Fiction. "Call it the Nunnery of the Traveling Pants," quips Booklist about this light, quickly paced story of first loves and college dreams. The newly established Victoria A. Treemont college scholarship fund entails mostly standard requirements for application, with one quirk: candidates for the hefty award "must exemplify purity of soul and body." High school seniors and close friends Mandy, Debbie, Eva and Kai are competing for the scholarship and form the V Club (yep, i...more

This book was embarassing to carry around, especially for reading in the waiting room while getting a punctured tire replaced! But what a cool premise: 4 high school girls who really want to go to college. I liked this book a lot. It's YA literature that doesn't leave a film of ick on you as you read it. The girls are individuals, they have real thoughts and genuine friendship. There's a little bit of fairy tale romance in there for those who need it, and a "suspend-your-disbelief&quo...more

I tried reading this book about a year ago, and I stopped by the end of the first chapter because I just could not get into it! So I decided to try it again, and I had to say that I thought it was great! I've never read any other book with this plot, and I loved it. I really enjoyed reading about four different girls with four very different personalities. And the ending was such a surprise; I never expected them to get married!

About a group of girlfriends with different perspectives and life experiences and situations in their senior year making plans to go off to different colleges and all vying for a college scholarship that has to do with writing an essay about "purity". It was a very quick read. It's hard in the beginning to figure out who's who because the author switches back and forth from different perspectives. But once you figure out their different personalities, it's easier to follow.

I loved this book I never throught that I would like it so much because of the plot it about virginity. Right when I started to read it I got into it. It was about four friends with very different personalities. It was very good and the end surprised me because I didn't think that they would get married,I will not tell you who got married but it was a surprise a nice one, but overall I liked this book. Its good read it.

Funny book, but it's a bit out there.
It's about someone dying, and leaving a scholarship for a high school student at Eva, Kai, Mandy, and Debbie's school. But there's a weird requirement---"purity of soul, spirit, and body." (c what i mean by being out there?) Plus one of the girls gets engaged in the book. And they're like sophomores. Wow.

I liked it until the happy little ending where everyone is hugging and making faces. The 4 mains are interesting, and I'm guessing everyone picks their favorite. It brings up questions teens don't always feel like being asked.

I thought the book was pretty good, but I hated the ended because it skipped the whole answer to the plot- you just have to infer! And I hated that, but other that that it was good!

This book made me believe that you dont have to sleep your way through high school. There is so much more out there than sex. Girls, start respecting yourselves. JEEZE!
