Well Ms Giffin I was not impressed with your book until the very end!! I won't give away any spoilers but I HATED all the characters in the book until the end. Even still I'm not sure I like them, it's more of a Okay it works for me! I am so happy I didn't buy it like I had originally planned!
Overall it's an okay book, nothing spectacular like I've heard from people, but I am determined to read the next two books! I am hoping they will be better than this...but we shall see!
And now I'm on to my next book: "Girls Poker Night: A Novel of High Stakes" by Jill Davis. I know I said I was reading A Hopeless Romantics Handbook, but I never got it started and then my book club chose Something Borrowed...And Girls Poker Night is due back at the library next week so I need to crack it open :-)
And I think I might need to add another book to my list! I know I know, I said I wouldn't add anymore until I got through my list of books, but I've heard that Julie Powell wrote another book called Cleaving. While I've heard it changes your opinion of her A LOT...I am intrigued. There is a long wait at the Library so I've added my name to the list...but I am sure I won't get it for months!
Anyone reading anything good right now? Or read anything good recently?

I'd have to agree with you -- I read Something Borrowed a couple of months ago. Thought I'd like it alot more - but it was just okay! Just finished Knit Two by Kate Jacobs and Dear John by Nicholas Sparks. Both decent and quick reads.
I haven't read anything too recently. WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?! Heehee....I should get Knit Two, since I read the original book (it was awesome.) Thanks for the heads up on "Something Borrowed". ;)
I read something borrowed sometime last year.. Yeah I was kind of annoyed with every character, but that didn't stop me from reading the sequel (which isn't too much better)
Right now I am reading "The Time Traveler's Wife" and while a little hard to fully follow, I am enjoying it right now.
Also a great book for the satirist in us all is Max Barry's "Company" hi-LARIOUS!
Sweet...I joined that website! I have this book on my list but I think I'll take it off after your review. I'm reading JD Robb's newest book. I love JD Robb.
I love to read, it just seems that I don't seem to have time. I even carry a book in the jeep, so when I am waiting I can read. I just read a book on our trip it is on my blog.
