Something Borrowed by Emily Giffin - 4 Stars

I have to be honest, this was my first 'Chick Book'. It was recommended to be by Amazon. I was skeptical but quite intrigued by the summary. I bought it to give it a try and was very glad I did. The story was about a woman who has an affair with her best friend's fiance'. This goes against every part of who I am so I was shocked to find how much I was rooting for her (now that's good writing). I found the book surprisingly compelling and really enjoyed it. The only negative I found was that it was much longer than it needed to be. A good portion of the book could have been cut out and made it better (but I find that with a lot of movies these days as well). All in all, it was a good book. So good, I immediately bought and read the sequel, Something Blue that was good, but not nearly as good as this was... Get your copy at Amazon.com by clicking the book above or in the UK, click here
