I was expecting to receive a print copy, but when I couldn’t wait any longer, I made use of my kindle and caught up with Meddy and her family! It’s Meddy and Nathan’s wedding day and something is up with the wedding vendor they hired. Meddy is convinced that Staphanie and her family are going to assassinate one of their guests and she has to stop it! Poor Nathan had no idea what was going on. With the aunties involved, things are guaranteed to go wrong! While I didn’t laugh at this one as much as I did with Dial A For Aunties, I still thought the misunderstandings and actions of the aunties were hilarious. I did experience some second hand embarrassment though! I thought this book did a good job of tying up loose ends from the previous.
OUR AUNTIES AND A WEDDING by Jesse Q. Sutanto takes readers on a wild ride filled with laughter, chaos, and unexpected surprises. Following the success of Dial A For Aunties, this sequel delivers yet another hilarious and outlandish story. The wedding of Meddy Chan and Nathan, which should be a joyous occasion, takes an unexpected turn when Meddy discovers that her wedding vendors are actually part of the mafia.
The plot is fast-paced and keeps readers hooked from start to finish. While the humor may not be as prominent as in the previous book, Four Aunties and a Wedding still manages to be an enjoyable read. Sutanto excels at crafting quirky characters and absurd situations, creating a delightful blend of comedy and suspense.
As the events unfold over the course of a single day, the story showcases the resilience and determination of Meddy's family, who go to great lengths to protect their loved ones. Fans of the first book will be thrilled to see the return of the Aunties, and will eagerly anticipate another installment in this entertaining series.

While I enjoyed ‘Dial A… ‘ this sequel was a disappointment. Repetitive, ridiculous (not in a good way), and extremely predictable. At the very least I enjoyed the authors introduction talking about the culture clash between different types of immigrants and those sections of the book were interesting, but I think they could have been flushed out and made more meaningful.
This is the second book in the series which follows Meddy Chen and her Singaporean aunties. I really enjoyed this one. It’s light, it’s funny, and thrilling at the same time. In this book, Meddy is marrying the man of her dreams. However, she overhears that “the mafia” plans to make a hit at her wedding. She enlists her aunties to help foil the plan, which takes many comedic and unpredictable turns.
