Product Description
Something Borrowed tells the story of Rachel, a young attorney living and working in Manhattan. Rachel has always been the consummate good girl---until her thirtieth birthday, when her best friend, Darcy, throws her a party. That night, after too many drinks, Rachel ends up in bed with Darcy's fiance. Although she wakes up determined to put the one-night fling behind her, Rachel is horrified to discover that she has genuine feelings for the one guy she should run from. As the September wedding date nears, Rachel knows she has to make a choice. In doing so, she discovers that the lines between right and wrong can be blurry, endings aren't always neat, and sometimes you have to risk all to win true happiness. Something Borrowed is a phenomenal debut novel that will have you laughing, crying, and calling your best friend.

Great Read! October 6, 2008 This is my first Emily Giffin book. I planned on reading "Love the One Your With" until I saw in the reviews that Emily had such a large following, so I decided to begin with her first book. I read it in two sittings! It is fresh - not typical Chic Lit, Smart and well Written. I immediately ordered `Something Blue' and can't wait for it to arrive!
Absolutely incredible. October 5, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is one of the best books I've ever read! I was recommended the author by a customer at work and ordered the book on a whim and was totally beyond satisfied with my purchase! The book kept my full attention and I absolutely did not want to put it down.
The story revolves around Rachel, a goody-goody who has recently slept with her best friend's fiancee during a drunken birthday celebration. Rather than feeling guilty, Rachel begins to see how much she has been taken for granted in her life and it triggers a series of self-empowering events for her. It is so strange to feel for the "other woman" but in Rachel's case, it is completely warranted. I absolutely fell for Rachel's character and hoped she would get exactly what she deserved in the end. It's a great read and I recommend it to all my friends and all the people reading this - don't hesitate, just buy it! You'll LOVE it :)
Very Good Book October 1, 2008 I really liked the story. I am looking forward to reading "Something Blue". I hope I like it just as much.
Something Borrowed September 25, 2008 This novel came in great condition, and it came late, which I hadn't expected, but it did arrive in good condition. Just like "Something Blue", I highly recommend this novel to readers who like romance and easy reading. You have to read this book first then "Something Blue". Emily Giffin is a great writer. She has helped me develop my passion for reading again. I can't wait to read her next novel.
Didn't care for it September 18, 2008 Highly recommended, so I bought into the 'hype'. Very disappointing. Storyline was thin. Poorly written. Not believable. Half-way through I gave up, because it was so dull, and I felt nothing for the heroine.
