Cast of Someting Borrowed

I could really relate to the character of Rachel. She bends over backwards until she breaks, and when she breaks it is spectacular and a total disaster. Darcy is the classic perfect spoiled best friend who we are friend’s with because it makes us feel a little bit cooler to be friends with the cool girl. Darcy was pretty one-dimensional, and I am intrigued that the author wrote a follow-up from her perspective.

Rachel was a very well developed character, but she was frustrating at times. Her lack of action and confusion made me want to shake her, so thank goodness the author threw in two (Hilary and Ethan) side kicks who were fantastic comic relief and helped to break up the tension. There are some cliche over the top plot devices (i.e. flying off to London on a whim to “decompress”), but over all the novel is a pretty nice read.
