A Wedding in December by Anita Shreve

Look at me! Another book in just a week's time. The internet is so lucky!

So, Dawn gave me A Wedding in December by Anita Shreve many moons ago. However, I just haven't had time to read it. I mean, the other day I found a book I didn't even know I bought. They are just everywhere.

In any case-Anita Shreve is one of my favorite authors. Everything she has written, I've just loved. Except this book. B-O-R-I-N-G.

First of all-we have some ridiculous other story that is being written by one of the characters in the main story. It is painful to read and really pointless. I am sure it was supposed to enhance the main story in some way, but it didn't do that for me. It just helped me fall asleep when I couldn't.

The main story is a reunion of sorts-a group of friend's, who haven't really seen each other in 27 years-get together for a wedding of two of those from the group. There is the "big secret" that no one talks about to the very end.

The whole thing is thoroughly predictable. Skip this Shreve story.
