Thank you Putnam and NetGalley for the ARC of Before I Do!  All opinions in this review are my own.

Sophie Cousens does it again! I loved Just Haven't Met You Yet and had high hopes starting Before I Do!  Luckily, it lived up to my expectations and I couldn't put it down!  I ended up reading Before I Do over the course of a day while relaxing in the sunshine!

I love books that play with the timeline when telling the story.  After an exciting opening, Before I Do details Audrey's relationships with Josh and Fred interspersed with the day leading up to her wedding.  I love how these flashbacks reveal more of Audrey's history as her present day is moving forward.  Before I Do will keep you guessing until the end and I can't recommend it enough!
