"Something Borrowed"

I recently finished reading an awesome book, so I figured, what a perfect place to write about it! The book is called "Something Borrowed" by Emily Giffin. Let me first say that I power read it in about a week flat because I couldn't put it down! Now, let me also say that I know this book is a very girly book and really has no intellectual meaning behind it, but hey, it's still reading. So, it's about these two best friends (Darcy and Rachel) and the story is told from Rachel's perspective. They have been best friends since forever and are actually very different from each other. Darcy was the popular one in high school with all the boys after her, and Rachel was the average looking one with the brains and determination. Rachel is turning thirty and has yet to meet the man of her dreams even though her childhood plans told her she should be married with children already. Darcy on the other hand, is engaged to an all around great guy, Dex. To make a long story short, Dex and Rachel begin seeing each other and start to fal in love! Obviously, this is a problem because Darcy is her best friend! Now, I won't give away the ending because I know you are all just dying to go out and get the book. But I will say that the ending is very unexpected and twisted, so I highly recommend this fantastic read! (especially the girls :)
