My Daughter’s Wedding by Gretel Killeen
4.0
Hope vanished four years ago. Her mother, Nora, never knew why. Hope refused to answer her mother’s calls, emails or texts. While she maintained contact with her sister, Joy, her mother heard nothing. Until she suddenly reappears, calling her mother - ‘I’m coming home, I’m getting married’.
I really enjoyed reading this book, but I also simultaneously hated almost all of the characters. Hope and (occasionally) Joy are absolute jerks to their mother, Nora. While they are 20-something year old’s, the way they treated her and acted, reminded me of children or teenage bullies. She’s a woman that has spent her life caring and loving for her daughters (maybe paying a little bit too much attention to Hope than Joy), but they treat her like she’s an idiot. Nora mother is hilarious thought...
It’s a bit silly, a bit crazy and kinda fun and I really did enjoy it!
