First Comes Love by Emily Giffin

I recently read First Comes Love by Emily Giffin. This story follows sisters who are opposite in almost every way. A family tragedy brings them further apart. As the anniversary of the tragedy gets closer many feelings, issues and memories arise. This story follows the sisters journey during trying times. 

This book brought an full range of emotions. Part of what makes Ms. Giffin a fantastic author is that her stores almost feel real. The characters could very easily be your family, friends, co-workers. The events that take place could be courting your lives. I truly enjoyed reading it. It's a fantastic story and a will be a great "beach read." I hope everyone enjoys it as much as I did.

The One & Only by Emily Giffin

I recently read The One & Only by Emily Giffin.This story follows super football  fan Shea Rigsby. Shea has been a Walker football fan her entire life. Her best friends father is the coach of the college team. After Shea's best friend's mother passes away Shea's life changes in unexpected ways.

Although I enjoy Ms. Giffin's books this one was not my favorite. It was very sports oriented, specifically football. I am not someone who is very interested in sports, especially football. Football is a sport that I know absolutely nothing about, beyond the Superbowl has a good halftime show and awesome commercials. If it involved baseball at least I would have been able to understand the game involved. The characters and story line are very well developed. You can see the growth, love and passion that the characters possess. So do not let the sports aspect keep you from reading!

Love The One You're With (Chick Lit Challenge, TBR Challenge Book 4)



I just finished Love The One You're With By Emily Giffin. While it isn't as good as her other books (i.e. Something Borrowed and Something Blue) it is still a great book. It begins when a women runs into an old boyfriend in the middle of NYC leaving her wondering if she made the right decision by choosing her husband.

I highly recommend everyone read it!
