Something Borrowed by Emily Griffin

When I'm reading a really good book, I sometimes forget that I am not the main character. Last night, when I was reading a certain section of the book, I was overtaken by this sense of betrayal and sadness. I felt hurt and wronged. I was the main character, Rachel,  until I woke up this morning and went to work. When I got home, the excitement was building because I knew I could get back to the book. I jumped back into the book this evening and finished it. I was glad with where things went, but there was no happy resolution to the conflict that was presented. I suppose that is where the sequel, Something Blue, comes into play.

I highly recommend this book. When I read it, I experienced every emotion that Rachel did. I fell in love, felt scared and alone, felt happy. I related in a way that isn't always so easy. I want to give this book to my sister, but I also want to keep this book. It was  so much fun and so relaxing. This book was like taking a great spa day for me. I really, really liked it.
