I really enjoyed this book but especially once we got to the her
moving to London portion
It really made a change from her character before to really rooting for her. 

Nothing to write home about, grateful I don't know any Darcy's!!!

I read the first book of this series and liked it.... but I liked this one much better! I do recommend reading Something Borrowed first though. Great series.

I really enjoyed this follow-up to Something Borrowed!

Not as good as 'Something Borrowed' - Darcy is not as likable a protagonist as Rachel, no matter how hard this book tries to redeem her.

fun

2.75, I think.

In true chick-lit fashion, our protagonist morphs from shallow and selfish to capable of putting others' needs ahead of her own in a matter of months. Hard to believe, but still a fun read.

My favorite moment? Marcus in a Hooters t-shirt.

This was a typical Emily Giffin book: completely predictable love story about a woman who learns a life lesson. With that said, I really enjoyed reading it.

I was definitely disappointed in this follow-up book to Something Borrowed. I absolutely didn't buy the relationship, and thought it was a bit outrageous to think she could become a completely different person, and they could develop a relationship of this intensity in a few months. While I can accept a few blunders along the way, I just didn't get into the story and didn't think the characters and relationships were well-developed.
