Rock stars ...celebrity weddings ...a grand manor house in the beautiful English countryside ... rags to riches success stories - the stuff fairy tales are made of .. more like the stuff dreams are made of as this literally bored me to sleep.

I did not care for any of the characters, most of the accents and for a story about rags to riches rock stars who reunite for a celebrity wedding in which madness and mayhem ensue it was just so very very dull.

The writing itself was not bad but it was just all so flat and I am blaming this on a lacklustre story and unlikable and in some cases, unlikely characters.

Narration was not bad but did not help really. Did not get any real idea of what the "grand manor house" was like - I just remember a lot of people hanging around the woodland and possibly a lake.

I can safely say I have been to more exciting weddings myself without a celeb or luxurious destination wedding venue in sight.

I had this on pre-order so very very disappointed after a run of bad luck with "The Curfew" by TM Logan, "The Club" by Ellery Lloyd, Just Another Liar by Mandy Byatt and quite a few more. I am actually wondering if the pandemic has had a very negative effect on many authors as some of my tried and trusted go-to faves are really letting me down.

Luckily my run of bad book luck has now broken and I am LOVING the sun-soaked luxurious destination thriller "The Cove" by Alice Clark-Platts which is just so beautifully written and has everything I look for and much much more.

If this is the kind of book you think you would be interested in then "The Wedding Murders" will not be for you as just so very dreary - I gave up before I knew whodunnit as I just could not seem to care.

How can such exciting topics be made so dull?
