I will sheepishly admit that I picked this one only after seeing the movie previews. I decided it was a chick flick that I would most likely see (even if I only do so after it comes to Netflix, deeming it not quite worthy enough of theater pricing). The book certainly delivered as the summer read I was looking for.
The narrative in the story is that of Rachel, who spent her childhood in Indiana and now her adulthood in New York living in the shadow of her best friend, Darcy. When a drunken birthday slip-up with Darcy's fiancee shows potential for something more, Rachel grapples with dueling loves and loyalties. Her choice? Abandon one relationship and leave it broken or abandon the other and leave herself broken.
BOTTOM LINE: While not 100% wholesome in its handling of certain moral issues and definitely along the lines of "chick lit", I couldn't put it down. Had to know...who gets the guy?!
