Writer Ann Brashares sat down with Saturday Night Live alum Ana Gasteyer to discuss her new young adult novel, The Here and Now.

Throughout the interview, the comedic actress insists that the new book is the latest installment of The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants series. In the video embedded above, Brashares explains that “pants” do not play a significant role in this “forbidden romance.”

After writing four teen books for The Sisterhood series, Brashares wrapped it up with an adult title called Sisterhood Everlasting; Delacorte Press published it on June 14, 2011. Random House Children’s Books plans to release The Here and Now on April 08, 2014.
