I absolutely cannot fathom why the main character had to think about whether or not to call off her wedding. Groom-to-be has had an ongoing affair with the bride-to-be's best friend and flatmate. This is a huge breech of trust on both their parts and while both continue to say again and again that it was a mistake, they seem to act as though it happened once. Once is a mistake, continuing for months is deliberate. This was also not just anyone either, but the bride-to-be's BEST FRIEND...this makes it even worse! Regardless, the main character takes off to think things over and waffles back and forth about the whole situation. While I admit that it was a breech of trust for her to read the best friend's diary - even if it started out as accidental - it certainly saved her a lot of later heartache.I also did not understand the main character's relationship with her mother, but maybe it is because mine is so much different. But I cannot imagine why a woman would not tell their mother that her fiance has been having an affair for months with her best friend, and the reason for not telling is because she doesn't want to disappoint her mother. Seriously? I can honestly say that this character was so incredibly weak and while she did pull her head out of her bumhole eventually, it took her a ridiculously long time to do so.Finally, I was incredibly off put by the main character saying that she didn't want to ruin her precious friendship with her close friend, Ben, by falling in love. So she just dates people she is not friends with? See, this is where she got into problems with her fiance...certainly does not seem that they were exactly friends. I could understand if she had absolutely no attraction to him at all, but clearly she does, so how in the world can falling in love ruin a friendship?All in all, I found this to be incredibly juvenile and I am sorry that I wasted my money on it. I won't tell people not to buy it, apparently others seemed to like it...I, however, did not.
