Emily Giffin
Something Borrowed is the smash-hit debut novel from Emily Giffin for every woman who has ever had a complicated love-hate friendship. The basis for the blockbuster movie starring Kate Hudson, Ginnifer Goodwin, and John Krasinski! Rachel White is the consummate good girl. A hard-working attorney at a large Manhattan law firm and a diligent maid of honor to her charmed best friend Darcy, Rachel has always played by all the rules. Since grade school, she has watched Darcy shine, quietly accepting the sidekick role in their lopsided friendship. But that suddenly changes the night of her thirtieth birthday when Rachel finally confesses her feelings to Darcy's fiance, and is both horrified and thrilled to discover that he feels the same way. As the wedding date draws near, events spiral out of control, and Rachel knows she must make a choice between her heart and conscience. In so doing, she discovers that the lines between right and wrong can be blurry, endings aren't always neat, and sometimes you have to risk everything to be true to yourself.

"Chick lit is usually hit or miss with me, but I loved this story. A little of it was predictable, but overall, fun and highly entertaining."

"Actual rating: 2.5 stars<br/><br/>I liked it more than I expected, but found it longer than it needed to be and overly descriptive in places. Definitely no interest in the companion novel."

"I got this book from a friends. She finished in in one night, on a night shift. It took me a few days. Entertaining. As far as chick lit goes...it is a page turner. <br/>Entertaining if you are looking for a girly book to read stickily for entertainment."
