Something Borrowed

By: Emily Giffin

Narrated by: Jennifer Wiltsie

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 30th birthday, when her best friend, Darcy, throws her a party. That night, after too many drinks, Rachel ends up in bed with Darcy's fiancé. 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.©2004 Emily Giffin (P)2009 Macmillan Audio

something borrowed

I was disappointed at the ending because I felt that it gave the characters in the situation of infidelity, an "out." It was sort of like "oh well." Darcy was a spoiled beauty and Rachel seemed like a weak yet goody two shoes who all of a sudden realizes she's in love with her BFF's fiance who is also her law school friend, whom she introduced to each other in the first place. Now, she's the maid of honor and decides to have an affair with the soon to be groom? I hope the movie is better than the book.

Short and sweet!

I loved the movie and I loved the book! it is a short audiobook but it was well narrated and easy to follow!

chapters missing!!

for whatever reason, like half of the story is missing. would not buy again and really disappointed. i love this story and i know there's supposed to be more to it.

Narrator

The book itself was ok but the narrator was bad which made it a hard to listen.

Enjoyed this novel

I simply love contemporary and romance and this novel did just the trick. Will continue!
