Something Borrowed

by Emily Giffin

Rachel's borrowed something: her best friend Darcy's fiancé, Dex. After a drunken hook-up on her 30th birthday, Rachel continues to see Dex and and carry on an affair with him. While helping Darcy plan her wedding. As the big day draws closer, Rachel expects Dex to decide which woman he wants, but he's dragging his feet. Will he call off the nuptials? Will Darcy discover her maid-of-honor and fiancé's secret? Stay up all night reading and find out.

I liked this book a lot. The pale pink cover with the engagement ring is adorable. And the conflict is interesting. Rachel is so likeable, and Darcy is so unlikeable--so you're actually cheering for the deceptive Rachel.
