Thanks to Random House for the free copy of this book.
- DESTINATION WEDDING is sort of a mashup of a family saga and a beach read. It has both the over the top glamour of a fluffy book, and exploration of the real, tough feelings of a family trying to relearn who they are.
- While at times there were maybe a few too many plotlines happening, I found that I really did care what happened to everyone, and in particular Tina's parents. Their stories of moving on after divorce felt so loving and genuine.
