“It was a great follow up book after something borrowed. Didn't let me down Emily!”

After I had read Something Borrowed, and LOVED IT, I was hoping for this one to be the same. It definitely wasn't! Perhaps it was just because I hated Darcy. I loathed her character. She was annoying, rude, spoiled, and a horrible friend. She did not deserve Rachel at all! I also didn't like the fact that she got her happy ending--she didn't deserve it, to be honest.”

I thought the second book was better than the first. The first book was writen from Rachel's perspective, the second from Darcy's. It was interesting to see the two sides to the story.”

Yes | No“Many of the reviews I read for "Something Borrowed" went aomething like "everyone is a sinner but they get a happy ending anyway!" but that was so much of what I liked about it. The characters were flawed and made big, life-altering mistakes, just like real people sometimes do, and sometimes real life isn't as black-and-white as "you cheated therefore the rest of your life will be totally miserable. So when I dove into "Something Blue" I felt somewhat protective of the characters, if only because of my knee-jerk backlash against the loud and disapproving critiques of them. I spent most of the book rolling my eyes at Darcy for being so self-centered and shallow, but ended up taking my own advice and somewhat rooting for her in the end. The actual ending, I think, was a bit forced, and there were a few too many loose ends left flapping around after tying the main characters up in a neat little bow, but I was glad to see some excellent character growth in the book as a whole, so my opinion of the series itself isn't necessarily tarnished.”

It got better during the last 1/3 of the book, thankfully.”
