Brought together each summer at a boarding school in Switzerland, three
girls learn a lot more than just French and European culture. Shirin, an
Iranian princess; Ingrid, a German-Canadian eccentric; and Vivien, a
Cuban-Jewish New Yorker culinary phenom, are thrown into eachother's
lives when they become roommates. This is a story of 3 paths slowly
beginning to cross and merge as they spend the year apart, but the
summers together. Through navigating the social-cultural shoals of the
school, developing their adolescence, and learning the confusing and
conflicting legacies of their families' past, Shirin, Ingrid, and Vivien
form an unbreakable bond.
Like The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, this story takes readers
on a journey into the lives of very different girls and the bonds that
keep them friends.
