This was okay-not great. It goes back and forth between present day and flashbacks of two girls growing up together. There were some funny references to things like Bonne Bell Lip Smackers, Love's Baby Soft, and Tiger Beat Magazine (all staples from my early teens) but the story was still kind of lukewarm. ]]> <![CDATA[ deleted user commented on Joanie's update ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/556602 Joanie commented on Joanie's progress update: "Finished Sarah's Key"

I finally finished a book after having the baby-it feels like a huge accomplishment!

This is the follow up to [book:Something Borrowed} and it picks up with Darcy's story. I wasn't sure that I wanted to read this since I didn't like Darcy all that much after the first book but Giffen does a nice job of turning her into a likeable character and creating an entertaining story. ]]> <![CDATA[Joanie made a comment on Joanie's profile]]> http://www.goodreads.com/user/show/279142-joanie Joanie made a comment on Joanie's profile:
