However, after a while, I began to think at what a versatile author she is. Her writing style is so humorous with such a clever tone of amusement and practicality, which I thought was a bit surprising due to her former profession. When I first read her biography on the back of the book, the first thing that came to my head was the word oxymoron. Emily Giffin, the author, was actually a lawyer before settling into writing. Reading Something Borrowed was quite lovely. I thought this book had a comforting feel, which made it both sentimental and witty. The story continues to address the theme of friendship and the difficult decision that is faced when the only ultimatum is choosing between friends and love. When Darcy gets engaged to Dexter, Rachel seems genuinely happy for them, but in fact has fallen madly in love with Dex. As Rachel goes to law school at NYU, she meets Dex, the perfect guy, but when he meets Darcy, they form a relationship, which crushes Rachel. Rachel and Darcy, who both grew up in Indiana, move to New York to start their lives. Something Borrowed, written by Emily Giffin, explains the story of Rachel and Darcy, perfect best friends.
