A review by sarahkorn
The Wedding People by Alison Espach

adventurous emotional funny hopeful inspiring lighthearted reflective sad medium-paced

5.0

"This is how it happens. She just lets people around her do what they want. She doesn't call them on their shit. She pretends like she has no needs, like it's just fine to walk into her room when she was in the middle of trying to have an orgasm."

I wish I could give this more than five stars. Frequently laugh out loud funny (truly, I was cackling in parts) yet very poignant. Covers themes of friendship, forgiveness, happiness, and finding your own way. While it had it's sad moments (TW: suicidal ideation, pet death, infertility, death of parents) it was overall a really fun read and would be perfect for a book club.
