[25] I felt this one was a little slow to get going, but the story itself is as touching as any of Wilson's finest work. Jacqueline Wilson is one of those rare authors with the ability to write a children's book that adults can easily read as well as children without becoming disinterested. From an adult's perspective, I still found this book to be incredibly heartfelt and emotional. Perhaps even more so than a child would find it as many younger readers would subconsciously gloss over the subtle nuances of mood and character, focusing instead on the main theme of friendship. Either way, Rent a Bridesmaidis a joy to readand is sure to be another success for Jacqueline Wilson.
