Quick synopsis: Louisa (Lou) moves to New York City for a new job as the assistant to a wealthy wife living on 5th Ave. As she settles in at her new job, she struggles to adjust to the new high life and being away from her family and her boyfriend, Sam.

As she finally starts to figure it out, things start to fall apart and Lou must figure out who she is and what she truly wants.

Would I recommend?: Yes! Especially if you liked the second because you will LOVE this one.

Why?: Lou is probably one of my all time favorite literary characters, mainly because she is the complete OPPOSITE of me, so anything she is in i’m automatically in love with. This book was actually much, MUCH better than the second, if i'm completely honest. This had more of who Lou was when she was with Will, and I love that version of Lou. She’s carefree, funny, and has the biggest heart. I really enjoyed seeing Lou sort her life out in NYC, figure out who she really is, while also taking a peek into life living on 5th ave. Overall, it was a really fun read and I highly recommended to anyone who loves Lou half as much as I do.

The wedding planner was a con artist, Charlie's favorite brother Danny brought home an awful girlfriend, the youngest brother won't talk to their parents, the groom's suit isn't ready, the house alarm system won't stop going off, the neighbor next door is borderline evil, Charlie's latest fling is coming to the wedding, and now she can't stop thinking about the new wedding planners nephew.

Would I recommend?: Yes
Why?: 

So this wasn't my favorite Morgan Matson book by any means...it's actually probably my least favorite to be honest. But that being said, her other two were fantastic, and this one was just "really good." See what i'm saying? Regardless, this was a solid summery contemporary with a smidgen of romance in there. The only reason I wasn't obsessed with this as much as her others was just because the narrator was quite childish and the the fact that so many bad things happened after another just made it seemed forced and unrealistic. 

Overall though, I really did enjoy this. It was the perfect quick summer read to make you laugh and smile. Definitely recommend if this is what you're looking to read next.
