I'm a 36 year-old woman and thoroughly enjoy Romance books. I've also never watched the movie before. That being said, my first thought was "oh crap I wonder if the movie is as good as the book?!" Sad to see that there are remarkable differences, but happy that most key points from the book are still in the movie. I hope they captured the feelings between Dex and Rachel.Andreanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6663927080607854951.post-75732589846445834402019-09-16T06:01:07.759-05:002019-09-16T06:01:07.759-05:00I'm glad to see the great detail here!. click ...I'm glad to see the great detail here!. <a href="https://www.voicestress.org" rel="nofollow">click to find out more</a>josphenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06136380173422519251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6663927080607854951.post-81224386710957963112016-07-27T16:01:13.179-05:002016-07-27T16:01:13.179-05:00Hi Heather!

But in the movie, for a lot of reasons, i hate Rachel. it was her fault in the 1st place to let Darcy date Dex. and its not that she steals him away from her. just my two cents. I wonder if Ethan really confessed his love in the book?yanghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06039408632195651594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6663927080607854951.post-24838893456890677612013-06-29T16:21:12.190-05:002013-06-29T16:21:12.190-05:00hi

I have read both something borrowed, and something blue (the continuation from Darcy's perspective), and I didn't think that Darcy and Rachel run into each other on the streets 2 months later? Doesn't she pretty much run off to London soon after the whole cheating thing is uncovered?(that happens in something blue) Also, doesn't she find Dex's watch not coat, and he is supposed to be in his underwear......<br /><br />It was an OK movie, but the book was way way better. Something blue book is also very very good too!! <br /><br />I also agree that the whole Ethan loving Rachel part was not needed.....Elenanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6663927080607854951.post-66069748617359974032011-06-03T14:32:26.199-05:002011-06-03T14:32:26.199-05:00I really enjoyed your review as well.

When Ethan started confessing his love to Rachel I not only felt confused but I thought, "oh gee, they’re going to change the ending." I'm glad they didn't. I agree they should have gone a little more in depth of how Dex and Rachel really loved each other. And I have no idea why they put his parents in the movie. Still, as far as books turned into movies usually goes, I think they did a good job. Of course, the book is still better. Would love to see Something Blue next.Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18211499578338882919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6663927080607854951.post-41857722722782550062011-06-03T14:29:42.759-05:002011-06-03T14:29:42.759-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18211499578338882919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6663927080607854951.post-22236014559251161482011-06-02T19:08:17.599-05:002011-06-02T19:08:17.599-05:00Hey Camille,

I don't really like reading from Darcy's perspective, but it sure does make things interesting! I just wanted to see what happened to the characters next. I'd say go ahead and buy it - so far, so good. I'm excited to see where the second half of the book goes. I'd also definitely recommend checking out the movie at some point!<br />Angela =)Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12600552584035779581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6663927080607854951.post-81786900183479061642011-06-02T16:33:50.329-05:002011-06-02T16:33:50.329-05:00I just finished reading the book but I don't t...I just finished reading the book but I don't think I will be able to catch the movie at the theater anymore; I guess I'll just rent the DVD later this year. I really liked the book and how the love story between Dex and Rachel was explained. I figured that the movie would not be the same as they usually add humour and characters (and sometimes storylines) to make it sell better. I was really surprised to know that Hillary was absent from the movie as well as Annalise, since they play a big part in Rachel's life. I's also curious why they apparently try to give Dex a reason to call off the wedding when he clearly had one already. But I'm still going to watch the movie some day, thanks for the review!<br />PS: Did you read Something blue? I hesitated to buy it the other day because I don't know if I will like to hear/read things from Darcy standpoint... Tell me if I should go back and buy it ;) Thanks!

And I completely agree with you about the whole Ethan and Rachel relationship, it just complicated the story way too much and made me want rachel and ethan to be together and the ending was just a downer after that weird scene between the two of them. :/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
