This was another fun installment of Meddie and her crazy aunties. She’s getting married to her love Nate and somehow the mafia gets invited to her wedding? Lots of antics and hiding of bodies. This was very fun and overt the top. I would love to see the Komodo dragon fascinations in real life!

Thank you @berkleybooks for my gifted ebook.

The aunties are hilarious and super funny! Reminded me a lot of my own Filipino family so this was very easy to connect to and immerse myself into this.

Four Aunties and a Wedding by Jesse Q. Sutanto is a delightful and hilarious rom-com that is a perfect fit for readers who adore lighthearted, comedic mysteries with a strong cultural twist, and are looking for a story that celebrates the power of family, love, and the unbreakable bonds between women.

Another fun addition to the Aunties series. It's outrageous at times which makes it a consistently entertaining read. With hilarious characters and dialogue, it keeps you turning the page. I really enjoy Jesse Q Sutanto's books and this one is no different!

I love a wedding drama, but the story itself didn't hit as well as the first one. I think there was enough silliness in book 1 that felt either too enhanced or too dark this time, but I still picked up book three, so there is of course potential.

The first book was a blast so I came into this with high expectations, and it didn’t disappoint! Absolutely hilarious.

I won this book through a giveaway! Very excited since I loved every book I’ve read by Jesse! If you enjoyed the first novel, then you will surely enjoy the second. This book is such an enjoyable and wild escape from the real world. The best word for these books: fun. If you are not looking for fun, then stay away. These crazy and constantly escalating circumstances are only for those who are looking to put a smile on their face with a book that readers are sure to eat up in a day. Now into the third book!

This was fun but completely unbelievable obviously 😅

I am looking forward to more from this family.

Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for providing me with an advance copy of the ebook to review.

I read the first book by Jesse Q Sutanto and it was okay, didn't care for it. When the second one was provided for me, I decided why not, I read the first one so I should as well read the second one. However, I enjoyed the first one more than the second and probably won't be reading any more of this series.

Loved being back with the aunties! Up to shenanigan's and lots of laughs! The perfect light-hearted read.

Another hilarious story about the Aunties from Jesse Q Sutanto. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and all the fun and games. Looking forward to more.

DNF at 32% - I really loved Dial A for Aunties, but this sequel is not it for me. Dial A really did not need a sequel and this isn't good enough for me to keep spending time with it. Though I will continue to pick up from Jesse Q. Sutanto in the future.

The aunties returned!!! I loved this series so much. It was so heartwarming. Although I *think* I liked the first book more, if you liked book one, you're guaranteed to love this one as well!

This was such a funny book, I sped right through this. I did have a couple qualms with the writing at times but all in all, this was so easy to read and I'm super excited to see it on the big screen.

This is such a quirky series and I love it! The aunties are truly hilarious and I couldn’t stop laughing. I love the mix of comedy and mystery with the romance! This is such a cozy book.

This is the second book of the Aunties saga. I loved the first one so I was really excited for the sequel! In this book, Meddy marries her love, Nathan, but the marriage doesn't go as expected (and what a surprise! 😅). It complemented the previous book in a fun way, getting to know a little more about Ah Guan here. However, I enjoyed the first book a lot more. If you are looking for a quick read for this summer with a high degree of entertainment, I recommend this book! I would even say that the story and the humor itself tends to be more young adult so it's appropriate for all ages! Did you know it will be adapted by Netflix? I'm very curious!

I didn't know this was possible, but the shenanigans got even *more* ridiculous in this book (compared to the first one, DIAL A FOR AUNTIES). Unfortunately, I didn't enjoy this one quite as much, largely due to the ridiculity but also because I personally find ruined weddings to be a very annoying plot point - so much time and money wasted! - but I'm fully aware that's a me problem and not a book problem. :) This book was very readable and I look forward to continuing to read whatever Jesse Q. Sutanto writes next!

It was okay, but not as good or funny as Dial A For Aunties. I did enjoy the premise just didn't seem to hold my attention as much as the first book did. Was worthwhile for the most part.
