Questioning
Why, you might ask, given my love/hate (and mostly hate) relationship with anthologies, am I setting out to read My Wedding Dress: True-Life Tales of Lace, Laughter, Tears and Tulle?? I've got high(er than usual) hopes for this anthology though. I'm thinking the concrete focus will keep the essays from being too too awful; the text is interspersed with wedding photos (and I'd look at anyone's wedding pics, strangers and otherwise); I want to read about Michelle Landsberg's wedding dress; and mostly because I'll have an excuse to write about my own dress. Which doesn't even come with a fabulous story, but I talk about my own wedding with as much relish as I look at strangers' wedding photos. Anyway, we shall see. In addition, I think the book is very well designed.
