Thank you Partner BiblioLifestyle and Mariner for the gifted copy of Social Engagement! All opinions in this review are my own.
This book is definitely not for everyone. Forrey takes on the current wedding culture and explores the relationship of the haves vs. the have nots. If you are not interested in a sharp commentary on how couples pair off and plan elaborate weddings, then this may not be the book for you.
The first half of Social Engagement was so good! There were many times that Forrey's sharp observations made me laugh out loud. Unfortunately, the second half of the book became more focused on Callie's own internal struggle and I missed the larger social commentary. Overall, this is a quick read filled with great writing.
