Something Borrowed by Emily Giffin Reviews
#37 in Books

Description

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.

    This was such a good read. I love the characters and the storyline. It happens more than people. I liked how it showed the other side of cheating and falling in love with your best guy friends. I would really recommend this book. I couldn't put it down.

    This was a great book - I read it such a long time ago but after seeing the movie I had to read it again. It is a great light read and funny, down to earth and you can relate to it as well. A must read!

    This book was so fun to read! I read this about 8 years ago and I'm so happy they have the movie out now. It's a fun read if you're into romance and drama.

    This book is SO much fun to read if you're looking for fluffy chick lit. You love to hate both Darcy and Rachel and their various decisions and behaviours. By the end though, you feel sad to say goodbye to them. The follow up to this (Something Blue), is also pretty good, but I found it wasn't quite as funny as this one...

    I love this book. Its down to earth and kept me turning at every page! I've read it over three times and it's always kept me feeling suspenseful as if I never knew what was coming. Very witty and wonderfully written
