Review: Just OK

**May contain spoilers** I thought this book was ok.  The story was interesting, but it was told in a very detached way, that it was hard for me to feel any kind of connection to the characters.  Even though the story is being told from the first person (which I'm not a huge fan of, anyway), I felt removed from the action of the story.  I also felt everything was too hard to believe- Alex's parents not caring about being in their granddaughter's life until towards the end.. that just wouldn't happen.  And they managed to pull of a wedding with very little notice for the bride?  And managed to cook a Christmas dinner afterwards for over 10 people?  It was completely unrealistic and made it more difficult to believe in the story.  I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
