Thanks to @avonbooks for sending me a copy of The Wedding Crasher by Mia Sosa for review! TWC is out April 5th! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Mia Sosa writes rom-coms that feel SO nostalgic, and I know she’s a sucker for them, too, because she name drops You’ve Got Mail, When Harry Met Sally, and Always Be My Maybe in TWC! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Dean is a list guy. He’s got a plan for his life, and love has no place in it. Meanwhile Solange refuses to have anyone in her life that isn’t all in. This opposites attract (or are they?!), fake dating romance was a wild ride (truly, so many amazing and hilarious scenes straight out of a rom-com). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Both Solange and Dean have reservations about relationships in opposite ways; Solange grew up with parents who weren’t in love and wants to find the real deal; Dean grew up with a mom who was always following her heart and is determined to marry someone whose life and goals fit into his own — love isn’t a factor. A fake dating scheme forces them to let each other in, and causes them both to reassess the choices they’ve made. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I loved that there was so much conversation surrounding Solange and Dean’s jobs, as they worked out what was important to them and what they saw themselves doing long term. Ditto for learning to navigate their relationship with their single moms as adults. As always, the Perreira women are hilarious and their relationships are so sweet. I related so much to Dean’s overthinking, Type A heart (lol) and the dynamic between him and Solange felt natural from the jump. Max and Lina make several appearances (yay) but you need to have read The Worst Best Man in order to read The Wedding Crasher. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I kept getting Party of Two vibes as I read this, which isn’t surprising given that Mia Sosa, like Jasmine Guillory, is a lawyer turned writer. Unsurprisingly, I really enjoyed this book and can’t wait to read what Sosa writes next. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ TW: sexual content ID: A kindle displaying the ebook cover of TWC sits on a white shelf.
