A Bride's Story, Vol. 4 by Kaoru Mori

4.0

I'm at volume four now, and finally I can call one of these stories an actual romance (using the term as romance writers use it, or so I understand). Twin sisters Laila and Leily think their dad's taking too long to find them husbands, so they scheme to track down their own. They end up getting engaged to the twin sons of a family friend, and the whole thing is hilarious. I'm in the local library at the moment, having just finished reading, and I had to keep stifling my giggles as I did so. The girls are... very determined, shall we say, and that's amusing, but hands down the funniest part is their father, and the grooms' father, negotiating bride price. A close second is Laila and Leily's mum putting them through what is essentially bridal boot camp, as she makes sure that they really do have the skills to run a household. Mr. Smith's there as well, basically in the background as a means to introduce the twins, but the book doesn't really need him to do anything else.

Apparently the next volume is the wedding of these two well-meaning little monsters, and I can't wait to read it.
