Bad Bridesmaid: Bachelorette Brawls and Taffeta Tantrums

Getting kicked off bridesmaids’ duty: thrilling reprieve or humiliating demotion? For heroine Siri Agrell, it’s a bit of both. Happy to be away from bridezilla but bitter from all the money she wasted on bridesmaids’ dresses and shiny shoes, suddenly Agrell finds herself ejected from the wedding, without so much as a bridesmaids’ gift to show for her trouble. Her crime? Detailing the horrors of modern bridesmaids in a national newspaper. Hurray, you may say! And Agrell’s loads of fan mail may seem to confirm your sentiment. But whether you agree with Agrell’s actions or not, the book Bad Bridesmaid: Bachelorette Brawls and Taffeta Tantrums is a fascinating look at the fired bridesmaid, a status most attendants only dread/dream of. Enjoy this cathartic read for the funny and realistic details that ground this fantastical plot.
