This audiobook lives up to all the hype. After weeks on hold I finally got it on my Libby App. What happens when a suicidal English professor meets a possible Bridezilla in the elevator of a swanky hotel? You have to read this funny novel - I was listening in my car and snorted my soda out while laughing too hard. There‘s some serious stuff mixed in with the fun. I want to know what‘s happening to all these people now 😹👍👍🐉❤️

It really was a tough call this month between Fredrik Backman‘s MY FRIENDS and Alison Espach‘s THE WEDDING PEOPLE. I went with WP basically because it was the first book I‘ve read by this author, whereas I‘ve read several Backmans so I sort of knew what to expect.

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.

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🌟

The first few chapters I was skeptical but I thoroughly enjoyed reading this. Female friendships are complicated and adult life is hard!

Can't remember it that well, but at the time it was ok.
