Publisher's summary

Whip-smart, heartfelt, and joyful, Alison Rose Greenberg's Bad Luck Bridesmaid is a celebration of complicated women and a power-anthem to live your truth.

This is not a rom-com. You’ve been warned.

It’s official: Zoey Marks is the cursed bridesmaid that no engagement can survive. Ten years, three empire waist dresses, and zero brides have walked down the aisle.

After strike three, Zoey is left wondering if her own ambivalence toward marriage has rubbed off on those she loves. And when her building distrust of matrimony culminates in turning down a proposal from her perfect All-American boyfriend, Rylan Harper III, she and Rylan are both left heartbroken, leaving Zoey to wonder: What is it exactly about tying the knot that makes her want to run in the opposite direction?

Enter Hannah Green: Zoey’s best friend, who announces that she’s marrying a guy she just met (cue eye roll). At a castle. In gorgeous, romantic Ireland, where Rylan will be in attendance, and Zoey will be a bridesmaid. It’ll be fine.

Okay, the woman definition of fine (NOT FINE).

Determined to turn her luck around, Zoey accepts her role and vows to get Hannah down the aisle - all the while praying her best friend’s wedded bliss will allow her to embrace marriage and get Rylan back.

But as the weekend goes on, Zoey is plagued with more questions than answers. Can you be a free spirit, yet still want a certain future? Can you have love and be loved on your terms? And how do you wrangle a bossy falcon into doing your bidding?

Ugh. Why!

The warning that this is not a Rom-Com needs to come in a little stronger.

I wanted to love this, but…it was too sad.

So…. Annoying. All the way through.

The main character was completely dysfunctional and self-sabotaging but talked herself into thinking that even though she destroyed something in her life that would have meant happiness, she was being true to herself and that was more important than being happy. When all she was doing was saying no to a piece of paper that means nothing in the long run. Married or not, you can always get divorced. The hero and the heroine were idiots, in my opinion. Both of them let semantics and details be more important than love. He believes in marriage. She doesn’t. They’re in love and it’s obviously the kind of love that most people don’t find. They said goodbye instead of compromising. What a waste. Glad this was a book and not a true story. I wanted to yell at them to not be ridiculous. I don’t think I’ll be reading more from this author if this is what she feels is being true to yourself, and a healthy relationship with yourself. Loving yourself does not look like this - spending a lifetime missing a person that you could have had with a little shift of perception. I almost stopped reading this book multiple times out of annoyance but after half way I was invested. I’m sorry I did. Listening to her go on and on justifying to herself that her decision was the right one to make even though she was miserable - cmon.
