Something Borrowed

First and foremost, Emily Giffin is one of my favorite authors of all time. I absolutely love losing myself in "chick lit" books- in the romance, in the gossip, in the social scenes, in everything.  Emily Giffin's novels accomplish all of this and much more. Not only can you get escape your own reality in her books, but you somehow also find a way to completely relate to her characters at the same time. I read all her books the day they are released, and I always find myself waiting on the edge of my seat for her to release another masterpiece. Well, masterpiece in my eyes. Some critically-acclaimed, snobby book editors or critics might not agree...but who cares about them anyway.

If you have never picked up one of her books, you must do so immediately! When I say immediately, I mean get on amazon.com and order Something Borrowed right now. No excuses. Something Borrowed is the best one to begin with, and I promise you will not want to put it down. Next in line comes Something Blue. This one happens to be my favorite. It's a tough one to start, but it is well worth it in the end. With the first two down, feel free to read the others in any order you want to. Baby Proof,  Love the One You're With, and Heart of the Matter are all great reads, especially for the beach or the pool. You won't be disappointed.

May 6th is a very exciting day for me and all of my friends. Why May 6th you ask? Well, Something Borrowed is coming to theaters. I saw the trailer for the first time the other day, and I swear time stood still. I am overjoyed that they have made this fantastic book into a movie! WOOHOO!

The film features none other than the talented actors Kate Hudson, Ginnifer Goodwin, and John Krasinski. Also, Colin Egglesfield is in the film and new on my radar. Whew! Let's just say I cannot wait to watch him on screen for over an hour. Anyways, back to my point. I cannot wait to gather up all of my girlfriends for a trip to the theater the day the movie is released. I've attached the trailer, so you all can be excited as well!
