The dazzling bestseller charting the lives of one of Ireland's most fascinating families.

Honor Guinness is rich, aristocratic, shy and awkward—nothing like her glamorous cousins Aileen, Maureen and Oonagh.

But when she marries the charming and ambitious American Henry 'Chips' Channon, together, they make the perfect couple. Determined to conquer London society, they are soon are at the heart of the best social circles—including a close friendship with the Prince of Wales and Mrs Wallis Simpson.

But within the marriage, all is less than perfect.

Meanwhile, Honor's best friend, the beautiful, enigmatic Doris, is focussed on marrying well to provide security to her family. Born to a German-Jewish mother, she has charm and looks but not Honor's advantages of birth and connection.

Set 1932-1936, The Other Guinness Girl is an evocative story of excess and wealth against a backdrop of events that changed Europe: The rise of Nazism, the abdication of a king, and the slide into World War II.

But will Honor, and Doris, find where they belong in times of change?

Very little happens in this book- a mismatched couple marries, and continues to discover the many ways they do not align in values or lifestyle. Little is resolved at the end, it’s very dissatisfying plot-wise. If this book were a movie character it would play the Waiter or Second Bellhop.

Offers little that is new or interesting

The Other Guinness Girl: A Hint of Scandal

By: Emily Hourican

4⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I really enjoy this authors novels about the Guinness girls. This is my 2nd and another one comes out next year.

Honor is a shy, non sophisticated lady. She is very different from her cousins. She meets an American man “Chips” who brings out her personality and they marry and become quite the social couple. They even encounter Prince Wales and Mrs. Wallis Simpson.

We also learn about Honor’s best friend Doris who is making her way in London. It’s the 30’s and as Germany is changing she is in danger. Her mother is a Jewish-German. Doris is looking to keep her family safe with a suitable man.

A story about friendship and what they each endure during those difficult times.
