Phoebe Stone’s life has fallen apart. Her college sweetheart and husband of several years has not only cheated on her with a work colleague but is also divorcing her. Her job no longer carries any meaning for her and she can’t finish her book to save herself. And on top of everything, her cat has died. Unable to take it anymore, Phoebe makes a spontaneous trip to Newport, Rhode Island and booked the best room at a high end hotel. But when she arrives, she finds the entire hotel is booked for a lavish wedding that weekend. Before Phoebe realizes it, she’s pulled into the wedding’s drama and it might just be up to Phoebe to make sure the thing goes off without a hitch.

I first heard about The Wedding People last year when it came out and marked it as a book to read sometime down the line. However, when I began to see everyone and their mother reading and loving this book, I knew I had to get to it this summer.

And I’m so happy I did.

The Wedding People, on the outside, seems like a typical romantic comedy book but I found it to be so much deeper than that. It’s a story about life, and the ups and downs of it. It was relatable and the characters were so flushed out that it felt like I actually knew this people.

Now, to be as transparent as possible without revealing spoilers, I do want to add a trigger warning to this book that I don’t think anyone really talks about because, when I read it, I was shocked as I hadn’t been expecting it.

A large part of the book deals with frank discussions of suicide, particularly in the first chapter. It completely took my surprise since, as the book summary suggests, it’s a story that doesn’t deal with a lot of deep topics. But, it does and suicide is the most prevalent so be aware of that going into the story. The author does handle it the topic well and I found it to be very believable.

Despite this, I really enjoyed this book and the biggest strength of it is, as I mentioned, the characters. I loved all of them and would love to see them again in another story, even if the end of The Wedding People concludes everyone’s story in a thoughtful way.

I did have to knock off a star, however, because I did feel the story went on for too long. If it had been shortened up a bit, it would be an easy five stars. Nonetheless, you should pick this one up. It is 100% worth the hype.

4.5 stars out of 5

    Earlier this year, I had a terrible fight with my husband, and he had no choice but to leave the house. And I assumed he was just angry, which made him leave. After a few days, I was unable to contact him or determine his whereabouts. I waited and waited, but he never returned or called me. I was filled with pain and remorse over what happened. I tried everything I could to get him back, but to no avail, until I contacted Dr. Isa, who came to my rescue. He did his love spell work perfectly to reunite us, and my husband, who did not want to return, called exactly after 48 hours, just as Dr. Isa promised. We are both now together..

      My marriage with my husband was all blissful till the day he walked away and never returned. I was broken and helpless and so many loved ones came through for me to join forces with me to resolve the misunderstandings i had with him but nothing was effective. He left me and our boys and before I could get to know anything else about him, I was told he is presently with an Asian lady and I knew that I had to fight to win him back to us. I had to reach out to Dr Masako and he came right on time to help me fix the problems. I was made to understand the procedures on how everything I wanted will duly happen and I complied. Dr Masako was hastened to fix the problems in my marriage knowing my husband was about to be taken wrongfully and just as he promised, the result of his work manifested and my husband got back home to us. I can’t thank him enough for everything. You can contact Dr Masako on his Email: doctormasako@gmail.com
