Book Review: I Take You by Eliza Kennedy

 

I Take You by Eliza Kennedy

Rating: 4 /5 Stars


Lily Wilder is a lively, young, effervescent lawyer in New York City. We are first introduced to Lily while she enjoys a night out on the town. She makes out with a cute British fella who buys her a drink, snorts cocaine with her best friend in the bathroom while declaring that she wants a Bachelorette party every weekend.

Wait! What? 

That is correct Lily is engaged to Will, a handsome archaeologist who seems to be too good to be true. As the novel develops the audiences finds out more about Lily and her lifestyle choices. She cheats, drinks, and enjoys the recreational snow skiing within in her nose.

 My own initial thoughts were, "This woman is completely screwed up in the head, I must read more" The novel progresses we reveal the layers of Lily, her past, her plethora of women role models, her immature father, and Teddy a childhood friend. Lily is a classic modern woman who is enjoying life despite the fact that she may be making poor decisions. Her loved ones advised her not to go through with the wedding. Lily is a free spirit, Will is reserved, she parties, and he reads books. They believed they don't match. Lily believes that they do, thanks to the three day mind blowing sex that had the first time they met -- 6 months ago! 
  
So does the wedding happen?

 Guess you have to read and find out ;] 

Recommendation for 18+
