Publisher Comments:

From the New York Times bestselling author Emily Giffin comes a novel that shows how someone with a “perfect life” can lose it all—and then find everything.

“Warm and engaging; readers will find themselves cheering for Darcy as she proves people can change in this captivating tale.” –Booklist (starred review)

 

Darcy Rhone thought she had it all figured out: the more beautiful the girl, the more charmed her life. Never mind substance. Never mind playing by the rules.  Never mind karma.

 

But Darcy’s neat, perfect world turns upside down when her best friend, Rachel White, the plain-Jane “good girl,” steals her fiancé, while Darcy finds herself completely alone for the first time in her life…with a baby on the way.

 

Darcy tries to recover, fleeing to her childhood friend living in London and resorting to her tried-and-true methods for getting what she wants. But as she attempts to recreate her glamorous life on a new continent, Darcy finds that her rules no longer apply. It is only then that Darcy can begin her journey toward self-awareness, forgiveness, and motherhood.

 

Something Blue is a novel about one woman’s surprising discoveries about the true meaning of friendship, love, and happily-ever-after. It’s a novel for anyone who has ever, even secretly, wondered if the last thing you want is really the one thing you need.

Synopsis:

From the "New York Times" bestselling author of "Something Borrowed" comes a novel that shows how someone with a "perfect life" can lose it all--and then find everything.

A very interesting - although at times silly and hard to comprehend. A look at the thoughts and feelings of a young woman engaged to one man and pregnant by another. One adores her - the other indifferent. She wants the indifferent one - thinks that by being pregnant he will commit to her. Oh, the thoughts of a young woman before they learn the truth about this mystical thing called love. It is easy to read and the character although shallow and idealistic is so very loveable. You find yourself wanting the best for her.
