Emily Griffin

    20 marzo 1972

    Emily Giffin è apprezzata per i suoi romanzi che esplorano con acume la complessità delle relazioni moderne e delle dinamiche familiari. Le sue opere catturano spesso temi universali di amore, perdita e scoperta di sé con un'onestà ed empatia contagiose. Attraverso i suoi personaggi con cui ci si può identificare e trame avvincenti, Giffin offre ai lettori non solo intrattenimento, ma anche una riflessione più profonda sulle proprie vite. La sua abilità nel ritrarre le sottili sfumature della connessione umana la rende una voce di spicco nella narrativa contemporanea.

    • Rachel e Darcy, migliori amiche da sempre. Rachel, la brava ragazza, un po' chiusa e sognatrice, e Darcy, quella nata con la camicia, rigorosamente firmata, che da piccola non ha mai dovuto mettere l'apparecchio ai denti e aveva tutti i ragazzi che voleva, tanto che ora, non ancora trentenne, porta al dito un anello di fidanzamento grande quanto un cocomero. Rachel non aveva mia pensato di poter condividere qualcosa con Darcy, né i suoi vestiti alla moda né tanto meno Dex, il suo fidanzato. Eppure, quando, un giorno, si risveglia tra le braccia del futuro maritino, Rachel capisce di averla combinata grossa.

      Two of Emily Giffin's most beloved novels tell one story of love and betrayal, friendship and forgiveness...Something BorrowedA hard-working attorney at a large Manhattan firm, Rachel White has always played by the rules, quietly accepting the sidekick role to Darcy in their lopsided friendship. But that changes the night that Rachel confesses her feelings to Darcy's fiancé, and is both horrified and thrilled to discover that he feels the same way. As the wedding date draws near, events spiral out of control, and Rachel knows she must make a choice between her heart and conscience. In doing so, she discovers that the lines between right and wrong can be blurry, endings aren't always neat, and sometimes you have to risk everything to be true to yourself.Something BlueDarcy Rhone has always been able to rely on a few things: her beauty and charm. Her fiancé Dex. Her best friend Rachel. She never needed anything or anyone else. Or so she thought until she uncovered the ultimate betrayal. Blaming everyone but herself, Darcy flees to London and attempts to re-create her glamorous life on a new continent. But to her dismay, she discovers that her tried-and-true tricks no longer apply--and that her luck has finally expired. It is only then that she can begin her journey towards redemption, forgiveness, and the true meaning of happily ever after.
