Spin was an interesting read, so I decided to give this book a SPIN. (Sorry for the bad pun there) Arranged was an okay book for me, but I guess it could be the fact that I'm in the wrong age group. Anne Blythe is a woman in her thirties who wants what her friend has - a marriage. Finding a card for a company, she calls it, under the impression that they are a dating service. Instead, it's a company that arranges for arranged marriages. Perhaps because I'm still in my teens, I felt that Anne was overreacting about not being married, and being alone. But then again, I never really felt the need to have a significant other in my life always, so it was hard for me to relate. Additionally, the idea of an arranged marriage based on a "friendship philosophy" seems not that bad (not that I would consider having one). It's true that society is in love with the idea of love, and maybe that's why there are many failed marriages. You think you're in love, and that the person is wonderful. You already have that high expectation of them, so when they mess up a bit (like forgetting to put down the toilet seat), it seems as if your initial judgement of them has been wrong. Being married to a friend however, does not guarantee romantic love, but it does seem like a better idea. I am more willing to forgive a friend for doing something wrong, compared to the effort it would take to forgive a significant other. All in all, it was a well written book (even though I kind of wish the ending was different), but I guess I'm still too young to relate to the main character. Perhaps I will give it another shot when I'm a bit older, and itching to get married. :)
