This One you can read again and again!

"This was the book that made me fall in love with Emily Giffin. . . This book was a hard one to put down and easily transports you away from life's day to day stresses. . Remarkably written, no detail is overlooked. She (Emily Giffin) immediately makes you fall in love with the characters and instantly you are invested in the outcome. Definitely a book I have and will continue to recommend to anyone willing to listen."

“A modern-day Jane Austen.” —Vanity Fair

“What kind of self-described ‘nice girl' would sleep with her best friend's fiancé? One who's seriously flawed, like this delightful debut novel's heroine, but also surprisingly winning and real.” —Glamour

“This page-turning, heartbreakingly honest debut...deftly depicts the hopeful hearts behind an unsympathetic situation.” —Entertainment Weekly

“Both hilarious and thoughtfully written, resisting the frequent tendency of first-time novelists to make their characters and situations a little too black-and-white. You may never think of friendships - their duties, the oblique dances of power and their give-and-take - quite the same way again.” —Seattle Times

“A thrill to read.” —Washington Post

“Sharply observed and beautifully etched.” —Newark Star-Ledger

“Dead-on dialogue, real-life complexity and genuine warmth.” —Seattle Post-Intelligencer

“Forget ‘Bergdorf Blondes.' The [book] you want in your bag this year is Emily Giffin's SOMETHING BORROWED. It's smarter, less arch and more believable.” —San Francisco Chronicle
