"Piglet begins 98 days before a wedding. The book’s timeline ping-pongs between the days, weeks and hours leading up to the big day. Piglet, our bride to be, is an ambitious cookbook editor with blue-collar roots. Her fiancé, Kit, is handsome and comes from family money. In meeting Kit, Piglet has jumped a socioeconomic rung and is still adjusting to the growing pains. Thirteen days before the wedding, Kit confesses to Piglet that he has done something awful, an unimaginable betrayal that the reader is never let in on. Despite this, Piglet decides to go on with the wedding, leading to one of the wildest meltdowns I’ve ever read in fiction. Piglet has a lot to say about expectations, feminism, friendship, class mobility and what happens when you surrender to insatiable hunger."
