I was given this book in exchange for an honest review.
I will admit this book took a couple of tries to read. The beginning was complex and confusing and I felt very overwhelmed with the many characters introduced right away…
After getting past that, there seemed to be more character introductions, which has thrown me again. I finally felt as if I had a control on all parties involved almost 1/2 of the way through the story…A very frustrating issue.
The story once it began is actually a fun one. It’s about several individuals from different walks of life that find themselves bonding over a love of pretty things…and when I say pretty things I say beautiful amazing wedding dresses. Because many of us have great memories of seeking out our wedding dress and finding that perfect one. These folks just take it a bit further, almost like an obsession and form a club. All of the member’s work together in an office, so perhaps it’s how they enjoy their down time. The club eventually turns into a fund raising idea and all of these once lonely people seem to bond and find friendship through their love of pretty things.
The story, once you actually get past all the introducing of characters and it gets moving is actually a fun story. I really enjoyed it and all the characters were fun.
