The Secret to a Southern Wedding by Synithia Williams

3.0

Not gonna lie, Imani annoyed me for most of the book. For someone who was darn near 40 years old, she acted like a child. I'm not denying that what her mother went through was messed up, but was it really so hard to believe that she could come out happy on the other side? It just frustrated me how dismissive she was of her mother's feelings as if she weren't a grown woman.

The story was cute overall, but I felt like things got very repetitive very quickly. I might have groaned when I got to 80% and thought there was more book left, because at that point I was just tired. One thing I absolutely loved was how Imani looked out for Kaden; the fact that she really did want to make a difference was probably her most endearing quality to me, and I wish the book had explored that more.
