Zibby's Book Club pick & a Read With Jenna pick! Alison Espach, THE WEDDING PEOPLE

Zibby chats with author Alison Espach about her absurdly funny and devastatingly tender new novel, THE WEDDING PEOPLE—a Zibby’s Book Club, Read With Jenna, and B&N Book Club pick! Alison delves into the book’s unique premise: Phoebe, a divorced English professor, goes to a luxury hotel to end her life—but then she meets the bride getting married there that weekend, and they form an unlikely friendship. Alison delves into the characters, the inspiration behind the story, and her use of humor to explore dark themes. She also reveals how her own experiences with grief and loss have influenced her writing.
