Daughters of the Bride Book Review

I picked up Daughters of the Bride by Susan Mallery from the new release shelf at the library.  It went in my pile to read but there were a few other books on top of it so I had to renew it before I finally got to start reading.  When I got to it, I needed something to throw in my bag and take it with me and this is a big book in hard back with nearly 400 pages so something else got moved to the top of the list because I didn't want to carry it.  Then I finally got to start it and I couldn't believe that I had waited so long.

Courtney ~ The Misfit 
As the awkward one, Courtney Watson may not be as together as her sisters, but she excels at one thing—keeping secrets, including the white-hot affair she's having with a sexy music producer.
Sienna ~ The Free Spirit 
When Sienna's boyfriend proposes, he takes her by surprise. She already has two broken engagements under her belt. Should she say "I do" even if she's not sure she does?
Rachel ~ The Cynic 
Rachel thought love would last forever…right up until her divorce. With Mom's wedding day imminent and her ex begging for a second chance, she'll have to decide if she'll let pride stand in the way of her own happily-ever-after.

It took me a little bit to figure out that the mom was getting married but the book was also about the three daughters she had and their lives.  I know that it shouldn't have been hard if I read the title but I guess I didn't do a great job remembering after starting it.  I was learning about each sister and trying to remember which was which but it didn't take long because they are all different.  They also all came out of their childhood with different scars because of loosing their father at a young age and the rest of their lives were shaped by that loss.  I liked reading about Courtney because she was really the underdog and she was trying to make the most of her life to prove that she was better then people thought of her.  I understand having something to prove and I really related most to her.  I hope that you check out this book and others by the author because she has some great writing and characters that make you feel like you are part of the family.  I hope that you enjoy it as much as I did!!
