Story
Georgie hasn’t been on a date since, well, ever. Nobody’s asking the town clown out for a night of hot sex, that’s for sure. Maybe if people think she’s having a steamy love affair, they’ll acknowledge she’s not just the “little sister” who paints faces for a living. And who better to help demolish that image than the resident sports star and tabloid favorite? Travis Ford was major league baseball’s hottest rookie when an injury ended his career. Now, he’s flipping houses to keep busy and trying to forget his glory days.

Story
Christmas is fast approaching at the new Hope Farm and Bev has convinced a reluctant Molly to organise an open day to raise some much needed funds ahead of the New Year. Their nativity tableau has everything they need: anti-social sheep, alpacas munching the Baby Jesus doll and a hairdresser dressed up as Santa Claus. But on Hope Farm it's going to take more than mulled wine and Christmas lights to get everyone in the festive spirit.

Story
Ava is sick of online dating. She’s always trusted her own instincts over an algorithm, anyway, and she wants a break from it all. So when she signs up to a semi-silent, anonymous writing retreat in glorious Italy, love is the last thing on her mind. Until she meets a handsome stranger. All she knows is that he’s funny, he’s kind and - she soon learns - he’s great in bed. He’s equally smitten, and after a whirlwind, intoxicating affair, they pledge their love without even knowing each other’s real names.

Nadia gets the 7.30 train every morning without fail. Well, except if she oversleeps or wakes up at her friend Emma’s after too much wine. Daniel really does get the 7.30 train every morning, which is easy because he hasn’t been able to sleep properly since his dad died. One morning, Nadia’s eye catches sight of a post in the daily paper: To the cute girl with the coffee stains on her dress. I’m the guy who’s always standing near the doors.... Drink sometime? So begins a not-quite-romance of near misses, true love and the power of the written word.

Soon she's living in a stunning house by the sea, fending off obsessed fans for a retired - if far-from-retiring - actor and organising his charming but chaotic family. Yes, everyone thinks she's part of a couple, and it's tricky keeping this secret. But at least she's not looking for love: with her disastrous relationship history, men are definitely off the agenda.

Summary
Rachel White is the consummate good girl. A hard-working attorney at a large Manhattan law firm and a diligent maid of honor to her charmed best friend Darcy, Rachel has always played by all the rules. But that changes the night of her thirtieth birthday when Rachel finally confesses her feelings to Darcy's fiancé, and is both horrified and thrilled to discover that he feels the same way.
As the wedding date draws near, events spiral out of control, and Rachel knows she must make a choice between her heart and conscience. In so doing, she discovers that the lines between right and wrong can be blurry, endings aren't always neat, and sometimes you have to risk everything to be true to yourself.

Minority
As this has been made into a film I am obviously in the minority in disliking it, and perhaps I am wrong to offer criticism as I just could not finish it. It delves into the depths of one persons lack of self esteem being manipulated by a selfish friend, in the guise of a love story.

OK
Wasnt sure about this one as I'm not really into Chic Lit, Rachel is the downtrodden friend of Darcy who seems to have no problem always bagging everything for herself until one day Rachel finds herself in the arms of Darcy's fiance. Its all about the ongoing friendship of Rachel and Darcy and Rachel looking back over their lifelong friendship and starting to view things differently. I'm sure we can all relate to either Rachel or Darcy in some way and It does lead you into thinking the end wont be how it is and if I'm honest I did feel a bit dissapointed with that.

Great story and wonderfully narrated
I saw the film and was curious about the book. I really enjoyed the story, it is well paced and not totally one sided which I liked. The narrator does a fantastic job at portraying all of the characters. An easy listen and would recommend.

Movie really brought the book to life and made it.
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
I bought this book since I loved the movie, but I have to say it was a little deflating.
Would you recommend Something Borrowed to your friends? Why or why not?
I'd recommend the movie, the actors really brought the book to life. The book just seemed more hum-drum.
What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?
It was fine, but a bit whiney at times.
Could you see Something Borrowed being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?
Well yeah it already is..
Any additional comments?
Don't buy this book just because you liked the movie.
