Basically a young adult romance novel, but I really loved the characters and the wedding premise. Predictable? Yes, but it made me happy while I read it.
This was a mediocre book. I liked the beginning and middle but the ending was not good.
Just as most of Dessen's books this one was amazing! I loved the character development and if you get the barnes and noble version you get some cameos from characters from her older books too.
If you love anything else Dessen's written you'll love this one as well.

I didn’t cry at this book like I did for a lot of Sarah’s other books, but that doesn’t diminish the impact of this story. Especially when it focuses on a topic that’s long been contested in America: school shootings.
Dessen does well not to get political or discuss the wrongs or rights of the situation. The shooter never gets a name, all the focus is on how a shooting in New Jersey could affect a girls states away in Lakeview, and it gives heart to all those scenes we see on the news, aspects of what it’s like to live on past such atrocities. She works this well into the narrative of weddings and what goes on behind the scenes, all mixed in with her trademark elements - including past characters, a setting familiar to her novels, a girl realising something fundamental in her life when she’s on the brink of college - which makes this story just as good as Just Listen or Lock And Key

Fun but not the best book out there,
I thought louna's relationship with ethan was a bit rushed,
I mean the fell in love in one day??! Smh
also i wasn't a huge fan of ambrose, his character is very childish and considering i enjoy bad boys ;) like villains and all, i thought he wasn't a male character that i found myself fangirling over.
However i really enjoyed sarah dessen's writing.
