Okay, so I DEVOURED this book in two days (who needs sleep anyway?). At first glance, it seemed like another fluffy wedding rom-com, but honey, this story PUNCHED me in the feels!
The main character Phoebe? RELATABLE AF. That moment when she accidentally becomes part of the wedding chaos instead of ending her life? Iconic. The author somehow made me laugh at dark humor while simultaneously tearing up at 3AM.
Pro tip: Don't let the wedding theme fool you - this isn't your basic chick lit. It's got layers like an onion (or a fancy wedding cake). The writing is sharp enough to cut glass, and the characters feel like people you'd actually want to get drunk with at a hotel bar.
Only complaint? Some middle chapters dragged slightly - I may have skimmed a tiny bit when the philosophical musings got heavy. But that ending? CHEF'S KISS. Left me staring at my ceiling contemplating my entire life choices.
10/10 would recommend to anyone who enjoys books that make you both snort-laugh and question your existence. Just maybe don't read it in public unless you're cool with random emotional outbursts!
