For the Love of Friends by Sara Goodman Confino

5.0

This book was so much fun. Confino has a great sense of humor and it carries to the page beautifully.

Thirty-two and single, Lily suddenly finds herself as a bridesmaid in five different weddings within a two month period. In order to get through the terror of bridezilla, terrible bridesmaids, and infuriating mothers-of-the-bride, Lily starts up an anonymous blog titled Bridesmania, where she writes honestly about her experiences being in five weddings, while simultaneously tearing apart her friends and their friends and family.

Through a common lesson in today’s world, Lily learns that nothing on the internet is truly anonymous. She hurts those closest to her and ends up losing quite a few people she thought would always be by her side.

But what Lily never planned on was falling in love. In fact, she had gone out of her way to avoid it. But when does that ever work out well?

Lily’s blog is humorous, and while it’s cruel, it’s also honest. No one should have to be in five weddings in two months, no matter how much you love weddings. And also? Asking people to change their appearance for your wedding is absolutely horrific.

I highly recommend grabbing a copy of this book. You’ll be laughing throughout the entire thing. The grandmother is WONDERFUL, too.
