Summary: Very light, hilarious, and fun
Review: Laura Wolf definitely has talent when it comes to writing hilarious books. "Diary of a Mad Bride" is no exception.

"Diary of a Mad Bride" is about Amy, a 29-year old woman who was tired of watching all of her friends get married, and fed up with watching various brides-to-be become nuerotic about every little detail. That is, until she herself was proposed to, and joins the obsessive-compulsive crowd of brides-to-be. She is suddenly sending her assistant on more personal chores than work errands; concentrating more on her wedding than work; and she's driving her fiance Stephen, crazy. Plus she has an odd assortment of family members driving her up the wall, including a senile grandmother who seems to only want to botch things up.

As it get's closer to Amy's wedding date, things get more and more crazy; nothing seems to be working out right. Will the wedding turn out to be a disaster? Read "Diary of a Mad Bride" and see!

Laura Wolf manages to keep the reader in stitches throughout the book as she tells Amy's story in first-person narrative. Each chapter features a long list of wedding details that get crossed off little by little; The entire book is a pleasure to read. Just don't expect anything too serious in this book; it's all about fun.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Too funny!
Review: This bride faces it all! From a concession stand proposal to a monsoon like storm the night before her wedding she conquers it gracefully. Amy Thomas, the main character, struggles with whether or not she wants to get married then after she accepts the proposal she struggles with changing her name. The funniest part has to be when her good friend Anita points out that with her middle name being Sarah and her married name would be Stewart her initials would spell out something vulgar. This book is a very quick read with tons of humor around every turn. Once you start reading this book you won't put it down!

Follow up this book with another dose of Amy in Diary of a Mad Mom to be. See if you can spot dating errors with her birthday!

Summary: Hilariously Funny!
Review: I didn't think I would ever come across another character who would make me laugh the same way Becky Bloomwood (of the Shopaholic Series) did.

DIARY OF A MAD BRIDE is the side-splitting accounts of Amy Thomas, a magazine editor, who is planning her own wedding after vowing not to become a Bride(zilla) like many of her friends.
She wants her wedding to resonate with the same unmatched qualities of her love for her fiance Stephen. In this process she finds that love is one-of-a-kind, but that weddings are a celebration to be relished NOT always matchless.

This book serves as a comic relief as well as a tutorial guide for all women who ever dreamed, are in the process of, or even are someone's bride.

I really enjoyed it, and I highly recommend it.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: This book really lightened my overstressed mood!
Review: I read this book about a year and a half ago when I was planning my wedding. I was SO stressed out and was planning a wedding that I didn't want but my husband-to-be did. So this book really let me laugh at all of the things that I was stressing out about. I have recommended it to all of my bride-to-be friends as a way to lighten their mood.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good Book-
Review: This book was a fun read, about a woman who gets engaged and keeps a diary about it and during the process of the year before her wedding- she makes herself and everyone around her, insane.

Fun book.

Summary: I'm pretty square-and it made ME laugh!
Review: This book has realistic and funny down-pat. The first few pages had me hooked. In fact, it was my girlfriend's book that she was reading, and as we were at Jack in the Box I read the first page...and couldn't stop!
Needless to say, I took the book from her (wink) and read it in a day. It hits a soft spot for twenty-somethings in relationships that have that marriage/engagement bug, and it has you excited for her when it's finally her moment to shine as the bride-to-be!
I have yet to be a bridesmaid for a friend like this-but if I ever am I will definitely tell her to read this book before dishing out orders. And as a preemptive move, if you have friends who are tying the knot, do her and her bridesmaids a favor and stick a copy in her mailbox!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A wild and crazy bridal adventure!
Review: Being engaged has opened my eyes to a whole other world of ettiquette, descision-making, and refereeing. Never before had I ever thought that I would divide the family if I used paper napkins at the reception instead of linen, or that guests would refuse to come if I didn't provide a course of dinner suited to their needs.

Diary of a Mad Bride is one of those books I caught myself relating to more than I think I should have. It outlines the troubles and anxiety of wedding planning, and what she had to go through to get down the aisle (and trust me, we ALL have our own wedding planning anxities). This books is funny, witty, and dead-on. And I still haven't gotten my shoes yet. ;)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Laugh out loud funny!
Review: This book was so funny for any woman who has been in a wedding, planned a wedding or attending friends weddings. You will laugh out loud funny from this book and be looking for more when you are through!
