Something Borrowed and Something Blue
I finished Something Borrowed and I have started reading Something Blue. Is there another one after that one? I cant find one.

Heart of the Matter, Love the one youre with and Baby Proof are Emily Giffins other books... but they arent related to Darcy & Rachel or their story

I've read all but Heart of the Matter. Honestly, not nearly as good at Something Borrowed/Blue. Something Blue was my fave of all of them. Love the One You're With was okay but I REALLY didn't like Baby Proof.

I just started reading Something Blue and I am going into it not liking Darcy from the last book. I am hoping I start liking her more.

I promise you will. I hated her from Something Borrowed- the whole book really left a bad taste in my mouth. But I wound up actually liking her character and rooting for her. I actually like her better than Rachel from the first book.

Re: Something Borrowed and Something Blue
Heart of the Matter has some minor continuation about Rachel and Darcy, but I didn't like that one that much.
Baby Proof is the 3rd one the author wrote and I really love it. It can be tough to get past a main character who doesn't want kids, but she's really likable and the book says a lot about relationships that I loved. In some ways its become my favorite.

Re: Something Borrowed and Something Blue
Heart of the Matter is a story about Dex's sister and her husband. They talk very briefly of Rachel and Dex.

Really? Did you find it upsetting that she didn't want kids (just curious)? I never thought of it that way. I actually loved it because I could totally relate to how she was feeling, and was interested in seeing how their situation would all work out.
I actually loved all of Emily Giffin's books, though I think SB/SB & HOTM were my favorites, least favorite was LTOYW.

I felt the same way...by the end of Something Blue, I LOVED Darcy....you're really able to see her change from selfish "why did Rachel do this to me" ***** to the complete opposite.
I've read all her books and I loved Love the One You're with out of the other 3....hated baby proof.
Also, Rachel and Dex make cameos in Heart of the Matter, since the main character is Dex's sister. They do mention Ethan and Darcy also. I believe Ethan makes a cameo in Baby Proof too

Not at all, I loved how she was a great aunt, but still wanted to be CF herself. I liked her sister battling IF a lot as well. I have read and reread it and cry every time!

Re: Something Borrowed and Something Blue
You are all right!!! I ended up really liking Darcey by the middle of the book. I was really rooting for Darcey and Ethan to get together. I loved the way it ended. I am now starting Love the One Your With.
