Something Borrowed

For the ages of fifteen and fourty-five because this novel is a great to relate to personal situations.

This is my review on a book titled "Something Borrowed."


Rachel White is a young attorney that works in a law firm and detests it.  She is a very conservative woman that has always been the shadow of her best friend Darcy.  Darcy is a beautiful woman that enjoys her career and has the perfect fiancee.  After Darcy throws Rachel a thirtieth birthday party, Rachel realizes she is not getting any younger. After a night of too many drinks Rachel ends up going home with Darcy's fiancee Derek.  The morning after, Rachel realizes that what she has done is completely wrong.  Derek however admits to being completely sombre and sane.  This is a novel of twisted relationships and full of drama.  Rachel realizes that she has to choose between true happiness or loyalty.  Her decision will take you on a ride where you will experience laughter, tears and happiness.

Darcy and Rachel have been best friends since they were three years old.  Darcy has always been jealous of Rachels perfection, yet Rachel does not realize this.  Rachel has been the shadow of Darcy for over twenty years and decides on her thirtieth birthday that enough is enough. 

This novel is abosolutely entertaining and enjoyable to read.  It takes you through twists that you will never expect and leave you in complete awe.  I definitely recommend it.  It is a easy read and will take you on an emotional roller coaster ride you will never forget.  If you read Something Borrowed you will want to complete the series of Emily Griffin's novels.

  1. Marina, I got the impression that this review was not really a review. To me it was more like a summary of what the book was about and it's plot. Try to remain consistent throughtout a review with your opinion and about the development of the characters
