Bad Luck Bridesmaid by Alison Rose Greenberg is a fun rom-com that will appeal to fans of Angie Hockman and Emily Henry. The story revolves around Zoey Marks, who has been a bridesmaid 3 times. But the twist isn't that she has never been the bride. Instead, each wedding that she's been a bridesmaid for has been called off. None of her best friends have ever successfully walked down the aisle. Talk about bad luck! Then, Zoey meets the perfect guy, but when he asks her to marry him, her fear of commitment causes them to break up. Now, her best friend Hannah is getting married. Will Zoey be able to break her curse once and for all?

Here is a fun excerpt from Chapter 1, which introduces us to Zoey:

"I knew right before the violinist’s fifth loop of Ben Folds’s “The Luckiest” that I was, in fact, the opposite... The church’s two ceiling fans were no match for Georgia’s August humidity, and while the makeup artist had promised I would emerge looking like a “dewy Instagram filter,” my face resembled something closer to a sad clown’s. Not helping was the ambitious flower crown digging into my skull. Was I not a bridesmaid after all, but actually a thirty-one-year-old boho flower girl?
I adjusted the folk horror film dangling over my eyes and took in the Gothic sanctuary. Light cascaded into the room through stained-glass windows, which depicted scenes from the Bible—or possibly a toga party gone wrong. The bride, Rebecca, had clocked a disconcerting number of hours on Pinterest, and it showed. Rustic Chic Jesus was thriving."

Overall, Bad Luck Brides is a fun romantic comedy that will even have skeptics believing in the power of love. After reading the synopsis, I was definitely intrigued by the "bad luck bridesmaid" and interested in seeing how the story would turn out. I was alternately happy and sad as I read about Zoey's misfortunes, especially how her fear of commitment causes her to push away perfectly fine boyfriends. One highlight of this book is the humor. There were moments where I laughed out loud, and there was a happy ending that left an opening for a sequel. That's all I want from a romantic comedy. If you're intrigued by the excerpt above, or if you're a fan of rom-coms in general, I highly recommend that you check out this book when it comes out in January!

This is an engaging and hilarious debut about Zoey, a young woman who think's she's "cursed" when she's the bridesmaid for three of her friends and none of them make it down the aisle. So when she eventually falls in love, she's terrified by the idea of marriage as she believes it isn't meant for her...so she walks away when he proposes. When her best friend Hannah gets married in Ireland, once again Zoey is a bridesmaid and worried that she will somehow thwart the process with her "bad luck." Lots of funny events and banter make this a read that you will surely enjoy! I loved how Zoey found the courage to be herself and live her best life!

A copy of this book was provided by Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

I loved and enjoyed this read! This was one of the reads that would make you proud of your own truth regardless of how ugly or pretty your truth is. I'd recommend this to friends when this one comes out.

Bad Luck Bridesmaid by Alison Rose Greenberg is a delightful and entertaining contemporary romance that kept me laughing and cheering from beginning to end.

This is a great debut book from this author. It has wit, sass, brilliant banter and dialogue sprinkled throughout. There were moments I laughed out loud, cringed at awkward moments, and cheered for our protagonist, Zoey Marks. Is she bad luck? Is she conflicted, lost, confused, befuddled? She didn’t think she was. She worked hard to get where she is professionally, and it seems as if she knows what she is doing from that aspect, but love? Now that is the conundrum. She has had bad luck in getting the brides down the aisle in the weddings she has been a part of…so far 0. So this time, her bff Hannah will get all her gumption and drive. She will not be bad luck again…for Hannah…and for herself and her own future.

I loved the hijinks Zoey gets into, and also seeing her progress and figure out not only her place in life, but also her goals when it comes to love. One can’t help but love her. Never a dull moment.

I loved it!

5/5 stars
