Something Borrowed is the story of Rachel White and Darcy Rhone, best friends since childhood.

The fling turns into an affair, and Rachel is forced to decide which is more important, friendship or true love.
About Emily and the book
Random opinion about Emily Giffin and her first book:
"I absolutely loved it and read it in two sittings because I could not put it down. It was amazing to me how Emily handled this complex moral issue with such compassion and clear-sightedness. I believed it all the way and forgot about the rest of my life while I was immersed in it. Her three main characters are portrayed as multifaceted and endearingly flawed---just like real human beings. Something Borrowed is also very well written---nice, spare prose, which kept me pressing forward, agog to know what happened. This is a book which takes a clear-eyed look at the rivalry that exists in even the best of friendships. Congratulations to Emily on having written such a compelling, engrossing, and uplifting book." – Marian Keyes, author of Sushi for Beginners
