Book SynopsisPhineas Farraday is a college drop-out turned struggling genre writer. One night, he's huddled over his keyboard when he receives a phone call from his best friend Alan Edwards. Alan has spent the last two years doing missionary work in Chile and only just got back to the States. He's got some great news for Phin. Alan's getting married...in a week...to a girl he's never met. You'll be the Best Man, won't you, buddy?Phin agrees, but is unsure how this whole betrothal happened. Something smells fishy and he plans to get to the bottom of it, even if it means breaking up the wedding, breaking the heart of the only girl he's liked in years, or the bride breaking one of his bones.My ThoughtsPhineas Patrick Farraday is a character that had me smiling as soon as I started reading. Add quite a few ins and outs of manly bonding with he and his friends Alan and Tad, the discovery of exactly why Alan is getting married to a girl he has never met in person, a week of complete and utter disasters and the reader is going to do the same thing I did laugh out loud and keep turning pages because you just have to see how the whole thing turns out.Will Alan marry Emily or won't he? Grab a copy today and find out for yourself, you will not be sorry if you do!Only real downside to this enjoyable three ring circus is that it had to end, however meeting the characters and seeing how Phin's mission to "save" his friend turned out was well worth my time as it gave me a lot of laughs and even a few chances to hiss at the witchy bride-to-be when she managed to one-up poor Phin! {One of the best scenes where the tables are turned involves a trip to the zoo and an episode with Emily and a Hippo, and that is all I am going to say about that as you have to read it yourself to understand the grossly humorous aspect of it.}For those who like the raunchy humor of such movies as Animal House, American Pie and Road Trip to name a few that this story has the spirit of you really need to sit down with this book and read it, it will entertain you from beginning to end![Kindle copy of this book was sent to me by the author in exchange for an honest review.]
