Book recommendations anyone? I leave for my HM this week and I have a long flight with some layover time. Before I head over to Borders this AM, does anyone have some ideas? TIA!

I just finished reading Anybody Out There? by Marian Keyes. It is by far one of the best books I have EVER read. It is so touching and well written. I defintiely recommend it.

I also agree with the other posters that Something Borrowed and Something Blue, both by Emily Giffin are fantastic books. I was so sad when I finished them. I am currently reading her new book, Baby Proof, and am enjoying that as well.

Wait, so is Baby Proof a continuation of Something Borrowed and Something Blue??? I was hoping there was another one... is it the same characters?

Unfortunately, no. They are totally different characters. But so far, it's really good (I'm about 1/2 way thru it).

1. Something Borrowed
2. Something Blue

I read these on the honeymoon and couldn't put them down!!!!

OMG these are my FAVORITE books EVER!!! I absolutely LOVED the both of them and could not put them down!!

Also Try:

Baby Proof--Emily Giffin (just came out and haven't had a chance to read it yet, but the other two books she wrote were great so I am sure this one is too!)

Undomesticated Goddess--Sophie Kinsella
Shopaholic Ties the Knot--Sophie Kinsella
Nanny Diaries--Emma McLaughlin and Nicola Kraus (Another FAVORITE)

I think the book is called 'Samantha's DIary to Nicholas' by James Patterson. Make sure you have tissues handy. I absolutely LOVED this book!

It's actually Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas, and its awesome.
