This reminded me of “The Moon and More, which is my least favorite Sarah Dessen book. I loved the humor and dynamic with Cricket's family, but I didn't like the love triangle and drama. Unfortunately I was correct at guessing part of the ending and sobbed, of course. And I didn't like after all the drama with the love interests, there wasn't any resolution in the ending.

February 2025 Book #7

Sorry, unpopular opinion here. I think this book was overhyped for me. That situation at the hotel was so unrealistic to me. Then, we have a character not only with suicidal ideation but also a plan to do it and it was ignored? I have read books with morbid humor like Hagman by Maya Binyam but from the beginning you see the absurd tone. I didn‘t see that in this novel. It was tragic so sad her situation but ignored⬇️

Gissy (Cont.) There were some funny scenes but in general, it didn‘t work for me. At the end we see a growth in some characters which gives hope to the characters.

Maybe the book was so well commented with great reviews and a rating of more that 4 stars in GR that I expected a stronger story🤷🏽‍♀️ 3⭐️

This was a four book bind up. I loved the characters and the friendship story plot of the book. I rated this book a 3 out of 5 stars.

1. The Wedding People was my first book by Alison Espach and I loved it. I now have Notes on Your Sudden Disappearance on my TBR.

2. Tagged.

Lately I've been reading the Princess Diaries series. I read the first few when I was growing up and always loved them. I still love that format in books. I've got two left in the series Royal Wedding and The Quarantine Princess Diaries.

A woman who wants to kill herself gets stuck at the most perfectionist bride's wedding. Great setting but it just became toooo preachy at some points. Great characters though, them being the reason I kept on reading. I for sure know this is gonna be a great movie and I'd love it more than the book!
3.5/5🌟

Unsurprisingly, given all the Litsy love for this one, I loved this book! I love how Espach took contemporary comedic fiction tropes and found genuine humanity underneath. The day drinking mother of the bride, the uptight sister of the groom, the perfectionist verging on bridezilla? They are all wrestling with their own vulnerabilities and trying to get through their days.

Cont'd

TheKidUpstairs And an ending that's not "happily ever after" but rather "let's remain open to happiness" that is just *chef's kiss* 3w
TheKidUpstairs Also, the banter is perfection, and there are plenty of genuinely laugh out loud moments. I happily add my voice to the chorus of love for this one! 3w
CBee Really great review! I didn‘t think I‘d like this book and it ended up being a favorite of the year thus far 👏🏻👏🏻 3w
AmyG The cover doesn‘t remotely do this book justice. I, too, loved it. Contemporary fiction mixed with rom com. Such a good read. 3w

This was a very fun road trip romance. No stress about the romance- just read and relax for your hea. Takes place in Ireland with such cute interactions. I love this for a happy cozy book.
