Book Review: Something Borrowed

Over break, I read Something Borrowed by Emily Giffin. This came about because I’ve been wanting to read the book since summer, and recently saw the movie. Now, I don’t generally like seeing movies before I read the books but I had access to the movie first, so… whatever. And, as far as book to movie adaptations go, it was pretty straightforward. Of course, they cut out a character to give John Krasinski’s character, Ethan, more face time, but it didn’t really effect the plot. At all. I would like to say here that overall, neither the book nor the movie were terrible. And now that I’ve experienced both versions of the story, I need to get something off my chest.

This story has a terrible message. More below the cut for those who don’t want this spoiled.
