A First Time for Everything by K.L. Walther
3.0

3 stars ⋆✴︎˚。⋆

this book was super quick to read and was genuinely enjoyable but a few things did leave me with some weird emotions. 

firstly all the bridesmaids being so invested in a 17 year olds dating life was kind of weird to me like yall really shouldn’t care that much. i also get she’s a bridesmaid but as a minor there were definitely some situations she should not have been invited or included in. 

katie’s whole thing about her being a shy introvert seemed like an excuse almost for her behaviour for most of the book. i totally get being shy especially when you’re around a family who’s extremely outgoing but certain things didn’t feel like a fair reaction to the situation. 

the narrator Jennifer Jill Araya did an amazing job at bringing this novel to life and giving Madeline a real voice and personality.
