I knew what Something Borrowed was about before I picked it up. However, I could not anticipate how much I would dislike nearly every character in the entire book. Most of them are immature and self-centered hypocrites. Two sets of best friends, both of them incredibly disfunctional. I have to say, the character I hated the most was Darcy. She was incredibly manipulative and the biggest hyprocrite of all. I cannot stand those women who constantly try to "one-up" their friends. The kind who only take and never give. They are the women who are selfish, but are thoroughly convinced that their very giving friend is actually the selfish one. I have personal experience with people like this, so I have to say I took Darcy's behavior to heart. I truly felt that Darcy and Dexter did not need to be together, but I also felt that Rachel should never have gone down the path she did with Dexter. Dexter should have been man enough to end things with Darcy before he ever started anything with Rachel. It just made me absolutely crazy!!
Up next for me is something I've been waiting on for quite awhile,The Twilight Saga: The Official Illustrated Guide. Oh yes! Time to immerse myself in one of my favorite guilty pleasures!
