If youre looking for a pageturner with some bite, this ones for you.' theSkimm'Millennial wedding culture gets a muchneeded skewering in this alternately light and biting novel.' VogueA razorsharp and darkly humorous debut novel exploring millennial wedding culture, class, and relationships, all filtered through the everpresent lens of social media.In an opulent honeymoon suite in Watch Hill, Rhode Islands most desirable wedding venue, 29yearold Callie Holt is spending her wedding night lying in a bathtub shoveling down a pizza; her expensive white dress now splattered with sauce and her groom passed out in the next room. With her sevenhourold marriage already imploded, Callie turns to the place of record her phone sifting through the photographic evidence of the past year to pinpoint where it all went wrong.Could it have started when Callie moved in with her best friend, Virginia Murphy, in the swanky Upper East Side piedterre for which Virginias parents foot the bill? Or when Virginias irritatingly attractive cousin (and Callies secret ex) Ollie returned from pursuing his photography career abroad, throwing a wrench in Callies relationship with her kind (if a bit dim) finance bro boyfriend, Whit? Or was the true turning point when Callie stumbled upon a dark secret lurking in the Murphys wellheeled past, one with the potential to upend everything Callie knows about the people she considers her second family?Over the course of one weddingfilled year, all these longsimmering secrets and resentments will come bubbling to the surface, leading to a reckoning that will strip Callie and everyone around her down to their most gruesomely real, filterfree selves. As Callie attends wedding after wedding, getting tagged in post after post, she begins to contemplateand actualize through her own artthe gulf between the true selves of the people around her and the selves they present on their screens.
