Emily Giffin

Hey all! So, I have been reading alot of Emily Giffin lately. She has a few books out, and so far I have read; Something Borrowed, something blue, Baby Proof and Love the one your with. The books are so cute!! They are an easy page turner with a message and a little something for everyone! Easily one of my favorite female writers. Whenever I am done with one of her books; I am on a search for another one.

Something Borrowed (Movie in the making with Kate Hudson and Ginnifer Goodwin) follows the lives of 2 best freinds. The "pretty" girl (Darcy) who always gets her way and her best "plain jane" freind and the triangle that becomes upon them when "plain jane"(Rachel) sleeps with "pretty girls" fiance and endsup falling for him. It shows you the fine line between the love you have for your freinds and the love you feel for your "soul mate".

Something Blue: A prequel to something borrowed follows Darcy on her journey to another Continent to figure out her life. (I dont want to ruin the first book, so read it!!!)

Love the one your with: Follows a married woman and her journey to see if the one she married is the one she is supposed to be with or if her old boyfreind is the one that got away. Eearing and very well written. It shows you the decisions you make are usually the correct ones.

Baby Proof: Meet Claudia who goes through life with the notion that she is the only person who doesnt want children, until she meets Ben. Fast foward 3 years into their marriage and Ben turns the table on Claudia. How far will one woman go to keep things the way they are and what will she risk??

Emily Giffin has a gift of taking everyday issues of women and describing it in such a way that makes you think about the life you live, the people you love and the decisions that define you.
