Something Borrowed

I loved the book, Something Borrowed, by Emily Giffin. This book is about two best friends, Darcy and Rachel, whom have known each other all of their lives. Darcy has always gotten her way and has a dream life. Rachel in more of a floater and stands by Darcy to support her in whatever she does. Darcy is engaged to a man Dex. One night, at Rachel's birthday party, Dex is the last person to leave because he has to come back to look for Darcy's lost purse. Rachel and Dex end up spending the night together and their summer affair begins. The book tells the story of Rachel and Dex falling in love, and hiding their affair from Darcy. Rachel is surprised that she does not feel guilty (for falling in love with her BEST friend's fiance), but she ends up feeling guilty for not feeling guilty in the first place. This book takes place mainly in New York City, but the characters travel to London, Indiana, and the Hamptons. At first, I felt bad for Darcy because she had no idea what was going on. As I learned more about how Darcy always got everything and Rachel got nothing, I ended up feeling bad for Rachel instead. The best part of the book is worrying about whether or not Darcy and Dex will get married. Rachel is the maid of honor! I'm currently reading the sequel. It's called Something Blue. Something borrowed is being made into a movie (starring Kate Hudson and Ginnifer Goodwin) which will be in theaters in early 2011. I can't wait to see it.
