Wedding Season August 31, 2008 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Having loved a couple of Katie Fforde books in particular the Rose Revived, I didn't hesitate to buy this one - I hate to say that I didn't get past chapter 3....I found it cheesy and frankly tedious...sorry x
Embarrassing August 13, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This will have been the last time I bought a Katie Fforde novel as hardback edition. Its predictable plot was not worth the extra expenditure and the sugary, dove-eyed cover illustration made we want to hide it. It really is a shame, but maybe I'm growing out of books like these.
A brilliant easy summer read - much better than her last one! July 23, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I'm a big fan of Katie Fforde and have read every book since The Rose Revived. Unlike her last book, which was drivel, I actually enjoyed the characters in this one, and it made a change to have a book which wasn't based around a canal boat! Everyone loves a wedding, and a celebrity wedding even more so.
OK, so, how the love lives would pan out was obvious from the start - so what? That to me is one of the joys of KF's books - you don't have to think too hard :-) If you want something that makes you think, go get The Guardian. If you want a relaxing book to take on the beach this summer, that's going to cheer you up because you know from the start everything will turn out well - this fits the bill perfectly!
Sad reader July 13, 2008 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
I have been a fan of Katie Fford's from her earliest works 'The Rose Revived' and 'Stately Pursuits', but this one, like the last couple of her's, have made me decide I will not read any more. This one was trite, boring and so horribly predicatable - right from the beginning I knew what was going to happen to all 3 women - and the only reason I kept going was to prove myself right! It gave every indication of having been written to a formula by a once funny and clever writer who obviously feels she no longer needs to make an effort - her name alone will sell it. The dialogue was stilted and unbelieveable, the characters left me completely unmoved. Thank goodness for the library I say! At least I didn't buy it.
Wedding Season - Katie Fforde July 13, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I loved Katie Fforde's earlier books {Living Dangerously and Highland Fling) for the developing romance between the down to earth heroine and hero. I feel this book concentrated too much on the practicalities of organising a wedding which just brought me out in a cold sweat. I like the idea of the heroine having an interesting job, but I'd like it to take second place to the developing romance. I liked the humour of the hen night where we saw it through the eyes of the older hens rather than the younger chicks. However, I did not care enough about the characters - the wedding arrangements seemed to take centre stage. It wasn't bad, but I loved Katie Fforde's earlier books. I hope the next one is about a central romance, not a couple of romances.
