I enjoyed this book but it was hard to get invested in. I tried reading the physical book and couldn't. I ended up with the audiobook and liked it better. 3.5 🌟 #Read2025 @DieAReader

Currently in New Port, Rhode Island. It is one of the few states I have not been to. Hope to make all 50 before I die.
Yes, I devoured THE WEDDING PEOPLE. This book is an absolute banger.
I loved Phoebe‘s dry wit & humor. Taking joy in your passions but also not having to stay the course in your life especially if it‘s not making you happy. I like the whole idea of finding joy in what brings you joy, not what society tells you will make you happy (young people & their obsession with perfection & an IG curated life). Speaking your mind & finding a sense of relief from not having to make everyone happy…all the time.
I wasn‘t sure if I was going to like this since contemporary fiction is hit or miss for me, but I‘m pleased to say that this was a hit! I felt so much for Phoebe, her story, and the many quirky characters she met along the way. I really got both the heart and the humor of this book, and it never got maudlin or preachy in its message. It‘s really about how the human spirit can endure and find meaning when things look bleak, and I loved it.
I was afraid this would be one of those “what is all the hype?!” books where I have the unpopular opinion. However, I really liked it and all of the emotions the various characters felt throughout. Not overly fluffy or heavy. Just a nice balance & a book that made me think about enjoying this journey.
#DynamicDs Day 2: #DoubleLetterTitle and it happens to be DD too! Awesome. I am still disappointed this did not win over James, but c‘est lavie. 💕
Finally got around to this one for #TOB25
I assumed this would be total fluff (not that there‘s anything wrong with that) but it was pretty deep albeit in a fluffy way. I liked what it had to say about taking care of yourself, finding the true you as you get older, loneliness, and grief. I loved how the author handled the pandemic. It made me laugh too.
Not my favorite short list title, but I can see why so many people love it.
