A review by pottersauce
Big Gay Wedding by Byron Lane

Did not finish book. Stopped at 12%.
I didn't finish because I was simply expecting something different. I was expecting lighthearted romance. But what I got was a kind of tragic story of a gay kid growing up with homophobic parents. And based on reviews, it seems to turn around? But the mom was blaming her son for her husband's death, because he's gay. That's just not okay. 

Also the language was flowery, more like something I would expect from literature? Not bad, but just not what I was expecting or in the mood for. 

The audiobook narrator was good, but my understanding of Louisiana is that the accent there can be a bit different than a more 'generic' southern accent. And maybe this story was nowhere near the bayou so the accent was right? I don't know.
