The Unwedding by Ally Condie

3.5


This one caught me a little off guard as I went into it blind. There are a lot of things happening all at once plus flashbacks to previous incidents. 

The story centers around Ellery. She’s a teacher who just got divorced and has a royal cockwad of an ex who I wish she had kicked in the nards. But nevertheless - she is our MC and is taking what should have been her anniversary trip to a beautiful resort near Big Sur.

Most of the resort is taken over by a wedding that is occurring in a few days and being alone doesn’t last long for Ellery as she is adopted by a pair of friends who are also vacationing but aren’t part of the wedding. 

All is going well, new friends made and then Ellery stumbles upon a body in the pool on the wedding night. And a raging storm comes in and knocks out communication and the bridge allowing them to leave. 

In a truly locked resort whodunnit, Ellery is scrambling to figure out who killed who and who might be next.
