A review by rebekahmorris
Something Borrowed, Someone Blue by Chautona Havig

2.0

I’m not sure what I think of this story. In some ways it was good. In other ways I was really bothered by things that were in it.
Things I liked:
Lara was really sweet and she was willing to do anything to make her fiancé happy.
Ty seemed like a good man. He was willing to spend his own money to make someone happy.
I liked reading more about some characters from another book.

Things I didn’t like:
Lara never was willing to stand up for herself until the very end and it really, really bugged me.
I didn’t really like the fact that Ty was counseling an engaged woman alone. No one else was even in the building much less in the room.
The fiancé was a jerk and no one seemed to care enough to say something.
No one mentioned the dangers of trying to marry someone of a different faith to Lara. Until the end. It was as though everyone thought it didn’t matter.
Only the 12-year-old girl was willing to say what was right and what she thought.

There were one time in the book when I had absolutely no idea who was talking or where they were for several pages. Other times it felt as though the story was written so quickly that information was just ignored or left out and I was jolted in my reading because of it.

Yes, the book did turn out right in the end, but I don’t think I’d read it again.
