Lily Weiss is her mother's worst nightmare: thirty-two and single--the horror! She's also a talented writer but hides behind a boring job at a science foundation. To her friends, she's reliable and selfless, which is how she winds up a bridesmaid in five weddings in six weeks. Anything for her three best friends and two (younger) siblings, right? Even if her own love life is...well, she'd rather not talk about it. To keep her sanity, Lily needs a safe place to vent. And so her anonymous blog, Bridesmania, is born. The posts start pouring out of her: all the feels about mom-zillas, her vanishing bank balance, the wicked bridesmaids of the west, high-strung brides-to-be, body-shaming dress clerks, bachelorette parties, and Spanx for days, not to mention being deemed guardian of eighty-eight-year-old Granny (who enjoys morning mimosas in the nude) for her brother's destination wedding. So far the blog has stayed anonymous. But as everyone knows, few things online remain secret forever... When all is said and done, can Lily help all five couples make it to happily ever after? And will her own happy ending be close behind? 650 0 $a Female friendship $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Weddings $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Bridesmaids $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Blogs $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Bloggers $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Humorous fiction. $2 lcgft 941 $a 5 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010024341.0 952 $l VOPB384 $d 20220329023124.0 952 $l JKPC771 $d 20220105014521.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20210814010444.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20210812010148.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8E36C8B6FB3211EB84FE297527ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
