Maybe once, maybe twice by Alison Rose Greenberg: There was a lot of promise to the story. An aspiring musician and two men, one from the past and the current best friend. But the story fell flat. Too many problems, too often a back and forth, and overall I found Maggie to be too much in her head. I don’t think I ever said, that I liked the gay best friend better than the main protagonist. Summer…

Book Review: ****/5
It's Publication Day!!!! I received this book form Net Galley and St. Martin's Griffin Publishing in return for an honest review and I need to thank them so much. I loved this book. It was such an easy fun read, and I absolutely loved the ending.
Zoey Marks believes herself to be cursed because every time she is a bridesmaid the wedding never makes it too happily ever after. She has started to lose faith in the meaning of forever when it comes to a marriage. When her boyfriend of two years gets down on one knee her fears manifest themselves into an explosion of her relationship. Heartbroken for the first time Zoey is struggling to carry on. Suddenly her best friend is engaged to a Man she just met, and she is once again a bridesmaid. To make the situation worse her ex-almost fiancé will be attending the wedding and he is bringing someone with him. Zoey is determined to get her best friend down the aisle, prove to herself that she can say yes and get her man back.
This book was great. It had a second chance trop along with an enemy to lovers trop and a Gloomy/Sunshine trop fill. The banter was great. I found myself batting internally between which guy I wanted her to end up with. I loved the strong female character. She knew exactly what she wanted out of life even if she did get lost a little along the way. I loved the realizations that she discovered toward the end. Alison Rose Greenberg did an amazing job. I can't wait to see what she comes up with next.

What do you think of marriage? Yay or nay? . I’ve been married since I was 20, and it has worked out extremely well for me 🥰. But, in Bad Luck Bridesmaid by Alison Rose Greenberg - a Women’s Fiction tale coming out tomorrow- Zoey just isn’t sure how she feels about it for her even though she is madly in love and lives with a man who wants nothing more than to make her his wife. This book looks like a RomCom but it really isn’t. Instead it’s an interesting look at whether or not marriage is for everyone.
