Knisley, Lucy, Something
New: Tales from a Maekshift Bride. Pgs. 291. First Second Books, 2016.
$22.99. Language: G, Mature Content: PG-13, Violence: G
Lucy is getting married and wants
to put her on spin on things. As she spends a year getting her wedding together
and putting her own stamp on things, however, she realizes how ridiculous
wedding planning can be. How manipulated
brides can be when planning food, dress shopping, picking a cake, decorating,
etc. Will Lucy find a happy balance? The illustrations are fun, detailed, and
quirky. The author does a great job of portraying the woes of “happily ever
after” planning. Due to some content, however, this is best suited for high
school or above.
