review 1: This much like the first book was a case of "I liked it but I saw some stuff coming before it happened". I did get surprised by one or two things but a lot of stuff was kind of predictable. I wouldn't say it completely distracted away from the novel but it take away some of the excitement. I also felt that Mark (Penny's husband) was a little less likable and more irritating in this one than in the first book just due to how he reacted toward something toward the end and how quickly it got resolved. Some of that just seemed to resolve too quickly for my liking. Other than that, it was pretty good. A lot of it made me laugh, which is really why I read it. There were a bunch of mini-plots but I think it was kind of needed though I did sometimes get lost in what was going on. ... moreAll in all, I liked it. Glad I won it. :)
review 2: Picked this book immediately when I found out that it was a continuation of 'don't tell the groom'. I have to say that Penny is one my favorite character. With her love of weddings and zeal to organize it, she decides to a be a wedding blogger which leads to her being a wedding organizer. One thing leads to another, she now has another wedding to organize and simultaneously organize an outing for her office staff to impress her new boss. The new bride is slowly turning into a bridezilla and the new boss a Godzilla. She tries unsuccessfully to balance her husband, her career, and this new wedding. To top it all, she is now a mentor to a new charge for gambling addiction. Her new charge, a surly teenager who refuses to stop gambling, adds to the complication. It is hilarious reading her efforts to manage the bride, her boss, her husband and her new charge all at the same time. Moonlighting her job as a wedding organizer eventually jeopardizes her career and her chance of promotion. The book is sheer entertainment and is a chick lit through and through. The ending, although very predictable, was nice and sweet. I give it 4 stars since the book connects all the characters and elements very smoothly and the addition of humor makes it a very good read. less
