Book Review: Vince’s Life The Wedding

I always say that I will make a review of my recently purchased books but i guess I never did, huh? And so, here it is.. my first book review(well, sort of like that).

Title: Vince’s Life The Wedding (Third book)

Author: Vince O. Teves

Publisher: Summit Books

Plot: The first book was about Vince and his first love, Andrea. The second was about moving on after losing Andrea and finding a new love in the person of Cat. And now, Cat broke up with him and he’s devastated once again. On the other hand, Connie is pregnant and is getting married to his Fil-Am boyfriend, Walter, in Las Vegas. Vince was hesitant to go at first because he was heartbroken and broke(he quit his job) but he did agreed to go in the long run. They leave Philippines and went straight to San Francisco where Andrea was. The plan(Spider’s plan) was to go to Andrea first and then go on to a road trip to L.A. On their stay there, Vince’s feelings for Andrea were awaken but his love for Cat was still in the background. Everything seems to go well until Connie informed them that Cat will be arriving soon because she also invited her to the wedding. Vince was left with no other option but choose between Andrea and Cat. >>FAST FORWARD>> Vince proposed to her and she accepted it. I won’t be telling you who he choose and why he chose her. See for yourself.. buy the book.

My Favorite line/Conversations:

” I like to think  that this could turn into love one day, but right now it’s not, and here we are again: I have to give you up again.” - -

 –

Connie(to Vince and Spider): I’m pregnant

Spider: Which one of us is the father?

 –

Spider(to Vince): I’m sure you’ve thought about it. You’re single. She’s single. You two can do what single people do when they’re horny.”

Vince: I honestly have not thought about it. ..At least not much.

The not-so-good points of the book/story:

- Almost all the chapter titles are movie titles. As much as I want to focus on the story.. the movie seems to play at the back of my head. It’s weird. Just like in the Ghosts of Gilfriends Past.. while reading that chapter all I think of was Matthew McConaughey’s accent.

- The driving part in America confuse me a bit. Aside from Andrea, who lives there.. It was never mention that Connie and Spider have international driving license.

Final thoughts: The book was nice.. as usual. Reading it gives you that feeling you get when you’re riding a rollercoaster. It makes your heart beat faster and on some point it can make your heart stop. If you liked Vince Teves previous books.. you’ll definitely like this one too. It’s real a page-turner.. I even skip breakfast just to finish it.(lesson learned: Don’t read books before breakfast). One last thing, I personally didn’t like Vince’s choice. I would be much happier if she chose *tooot*. But who knows, there might be book four and there he can be with *tooot*. ^_^
