''Something Borrowed'' is a 2005 chick lit novel by author Emily Giffin. The novel concerns morals regarding friends and relationships.

"This is a realistic situation that women face in today's society", according to one book review.〔''Book Reporter'': ("Review: Something Borrowed" )〕
The title comes from a "Something old, something new", a traditional nursery rhyme concerning a bride's attire.
''Something Borrowed'' became an international bestseller and was placed on ''The New York Times'' Best Seller List, among others. It was developed into a film by Hilary Swank's shared production company.
