Fifteen-year-old, self help book junky Madeline Hickman feels she has a pretty messed up life. She attributes it all to sex and booze. First, her alcoholic sister Barbara is marrying codependent enabler Michael, who insists that Barbara will finally stop drinking once she's married. Second, her boyfriend Justin just lost his father and has decided to turn alcoholic on her. On top of that, he thinks sex is the answer to all of their problems. Third, her best friend Peter has decided sex with his girlfriend takes precedence over his friendship with Maddie. Fourth, her beloved grandmother Bubbie and The Jewish Martha Stewart (a.k.a Maddie's mother) are in a family squabble that is a mystery to Maddie. And to top it all off, her parents are totally clueless about everything-- or so she thinks. Between the surfacing of family secrets and losing her best friend and boyfriend, Maddie feels completely out of control. Hannah Goodman has written a wonderfully witty, engrossing and hilarious novel about sisters and their relationships. Her prose is dead on and her scenes flow effortlessly from one to the other. finish My Sister's Wedding! --Rosemary O'Brien, Author of First Saturday
