A review by tfillion
The Chapel Wars by Lindsey Leavitt

3.0

I think that this book was cute, but it was definitely not one of my favorites. The best part is the love interest- Dax. However, the way that the protagonist treats him makes me wish that he went looking for someone better. There was a running Romeo and Juliet theme going on, but the acceptance of the relationship by both parties for the most part made it seem like this feud was not nearly as dramatic. However, I did like the discussion of love vs marriage and the contrasting ideas of Holly's divorced parents and Dax's widowed mother and how that affected their view of love/ marriage, which is seen in the difference in the wedding chapels. Overall, I'm excited to start Going Vintage and I will keep Leavitt on my list of authors to read.
