The Wedding People by Alison Espach

3.0

dark funny lighthearted relaxing fast-paced

Plot or Character Driven: Character

Strong character development: Complicated

Loveable characters: Complicated

Diverse cast of characters: No

Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

TW: suicidal ideation, marital affair, and pregnancy loss

I really wanted to like this book more than I did, mostly because parts were quite humorous. I also listened to segments via audiobook and the reader did an excellent job. Many of the characters are deeply unlikeable, however, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing, but I found that in the end the storyline felt rather underdeveloped and perhaps wrapped itself up in too neat of a bow.

Read if: you’re amused by spoiled bridezillas and the general nature of the wedding industrial complex and will appreciate some dark humor.

Skip if: any of the above is triggering, you’re looking for sophisticated plot, or you truly don’t understand or are not interested in the moneyed East Coast elite.

Rating: ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ / 5️⃣
