Great, funny book!

Molly is tired of being a bridesmaid. With an inheritance burning a hole in her pocket from her grandmother, she decides not to be a bridesmaid anymore, and be the bride. Good plan. Now, if only she had a groom. She opens the paper and finds an escort. Justin is just what she needs to pull off the scam of the century, as long as no one finds out that he's actually gay. With her family loving Justin, there's only one more person to impress, her best friend Brad. But Brad has problems of his own. He's engaged to the devil herself and she will do anything in her power to keep Brad and Molly apart. With no one to lean on, Molly goes through with all the wedding plans, including purchasing a hot Vera Wang dress. The tough part? Planning on how Justin will "leave her at the alter heartbroken". She gets so far into planning this, that she realizes that there are more feelings involved than she had planned. Then, to top it all off, she meets "the one". Molly is a very compassionate character with whom you will be able to relate. Her constant chatter about weddings might get you a little bored, but keep reading, because you can see a deeper story laying within it. Her family is always watching and waiting for her to find someone, and when she does, they act like the world revolves around it. Also, Molly's run-ins with Claire (the devil) are very amusing. With Brad sauntering along, you root for him to get out of the relationship with Claire. While not a book that will get you thinking, this book is a good read, especially if you're looking for a beach book. Personally, it had me drawn in and I couldn't wait to see how the fake wedding was going to turn out for Molly. I was rooting for her the whole time. REPOSTED FROM: [...]

Should be on the Best Sellers lists

I absolutely loved this book! It was so funny that I laughed out loud MANY times while reading it. I really love Sophie Kinsella books and since I've read them all I haven't found anything that tickled me as much as this book. I am SO excited to have a new author to read! I can't wait to read, Not Quite A Mom.

Not Quite a Bride

This was a purely enjoyable read. If you are in the mood for light, fun reading that ends happily, this book is for you. It was fun to just escape and see where the adventure took the main character Molly. I highly recommend, I thoroughly enjoyed this book!

Captivating light read

This is great chick lit - Molly's (far fetched) experiences in this book are both entertaining and absorbing. Kirsten Sawyer is such a fun, fast-paced writer that I had to take this book to work to read on my lunch hours until I finished it!

Pure Entertainment

This book is a great read. I was so wrapped up in the main character's crazy schemes that I could hardly put it down and finished it in a weekend! The story is very well written; easy to read with a great deal of funny references that made me laugh out loud. The characters, who could be familiar to anyone, are great, and the protagonist is just the right balance of lovable and despicable to keep it interesting. If you need a fun read, I highly recommend it.
