This novel (the title can be roughly translated as 'Today Everything Will Be Great') is a delightful, fast paced, light-hearted read.

In the novel, there are a few story lines revolving around a handful of main characters: a wedding planner, a bride and her twin sister and her bridegroom, a super-picky bride, a little boy who is attempting his beloved aunt's wedding, and last but not least a man who planned to burn the wedding site to the ground; all of the stories above take place in the same day. The stories are intertwined and eventually everything come together.

There are family dramas, humor, romance and mysteries in these stories and I like how the characters are vividly written with their own different bright spots and shortcoming and in the end, everyone turns out okay. Mizuki Tsujimura doesn't disappoint this time.

四對新人在十一月二十二日這大吉日,於阿爾瑪蒂飯店進行婚禮和婚宴。

一對是同卵雙胞胎姊妹互換身分,測試新郎倌能否分辨,好決定這婚姻的可行性。一對的新郎大了新娘十多歲,而新娘是過了可愛年紀但還不忘任性搞自我,使得負責的飯店婚禮顧問吃盡苦頭。第三對是用小孩子的角度敘述─當藥師的阿姨要嫁給小七歲的同事時,家中所有的人都大力反對。最喜歡阿姨的小男孩想盡辦法要破壞婚禮,以為這樣才能讓阿姨幸福。最後則是外遇男子騎虎難下的重婚宴,男子想到唯一能中止婚禮的辦法,就是讓飯店因火警出意外。

跟這四個婚禮有關的人分別以第一人稱敘事,儘管角色跳躍,但時序上流暢地穿梭在不相識但同在一個空間出現的敘說者,直到最後一場意外的火警把所有的人都兜在一起。之前的懸疑、猜忌和混亂等等,最終都是皆大歡喜結尾。

這是一本很有畫面的小說,很適合拍成快速運鏡的電影。因為實在有趣,兩個晚上速速翻看,看完後心情大好。

好久沒這樣好心情了哪!真是厲害的作家啊!
