Overview

Meet Darcy in SOMETHING BLUE: No guy. Not enough money for shoes. No one will hire her. And a baby on the way. Life is about to get very interesting.
Darcy knows what is important in life: being the most beautiful. She has chosen to live life on the surface, picking a fiance who looks great next to her and a job in public relations that showcases her talents. Everything is perfect--just the way Darcy likes it. Until she finds herself pregnant, alone, and dumped by two men. Darcy can think of only one thing to do--run away to London, inviting herself to stay indefinitely in her childhood friend Ethan's apartment. There, she learns more about motherhood and herself than she ever thought possible--and discovers the true meaning of friendship and love. SOMETHING BLUE is a charming and complex portrait of a woman discovering that sometimes even perfection is overrated and that a messy life can be more satisfying than she ever dreamed.

Somewhat predictable but also entertaining. It's a good one for the commute.

I received this book while I was actually reading "Something Borrowed", which was such a good book I decided to return "Something Blue" and buy the book so I could get the whole unabridged story. I really really loved these 2 books.

Good book, started out a bit rough, didn't think it was something I would like, but then I was hooked, people can change, and do with the right influences. And true love helps too.

In the beginning she was very shallow and learned about herself, love and friendship.

Barely entertaining at first

I had to stop & restart the first 2 CDs multiple times. If I had something else to listen to I would have. It got better when Darcy got to London - then it began to get more entertaining.

This book was ok, Darcy was very vain but ended up being a great person and friend. Might be a better book in the unabridged version.

If only the women in the story was a Christian, she could have saved herself a lot of heartache. The book is well written, and I loved the reader.

lighthearted fun read

Very entertaining little book. Fans of Jessica Parker and gang, you'll enjoy this. Reads like a movie script. It would easily translatable to film.
