This book is about the weekend in which Cassie attempts to sabotage her twin sister's wedding. However, the genius of the book is that we can see Cassie's increasingly bizarre rationalizations and manipulations, but Cassie herself is unaware of them and sees herself as the reasonable and wronged party. The writing style is fresh and witty--it reminded me a little of Dorothy Parker. Highly recommended.
