A friend recommended I read this because we both read Something Borrowed and even though I was reluctant at first she convince me this one was better. Not sure I'll be taking book advice from her again any time soon. The main thing I hated about the first book was Darcy's character and this book focuses on her. It's not a horrible book but most certainly not my favorite and not better than the first.

This was an amazing continuance/alternate perspective to Something Borrowed (the first book). It had me laughing throughout and in tears at the end. Well worth reading.

Well, I liked this one better than Something Borrowed. Which surprises me because I hated Darcy, the protagonist, in the first book. This story brought tears of joy to my eyes at the end. Great summer read!!!

A significant improvement over the first book, I was able to get lost in the dreamy ideals of a woman's life finally falling together. Too many perfect details for my liking.

I'm really glad I ended up reading this since I just dispised Darcy after reading 'Something Borrowed'. This was a cute, quick read.. and I totally did not get the meaning of the title, lol. I thought it just went along with the wedding theme from the first book. Great read for the beach, although I actually cried at the end of it, which was a little embarrassing while sitting in my beach chair. Haha.
