Inhalt/Kritik

Kritik
"Meticulously researched and vividly written, Georgie Blalock paints a detailed portrait of Princess Louise and her refusal to bow to society's-or her mother's-expectations, from Louise's unusual admittance into the National Art Training School to her sweeping romance with a renowned sculptor. Fans of The Crown's Princess Margaret will adore this look at Princess Louise, the unconventional daughter of Queen Victoria, as she bends all the rules to live a life on her own terms." - Stephanie Marie Thornton, USA Today bestselling author of A Most Clever Girl

"An exciting and compelling view inside the glamorous lives of debutantes coming out in the 1930's before WWII... Georgie Blalock brings to life not only the glitz of the aristocracy but the sometimes ugly gossip behind the scenes in this fascinating tale of family, friendship, betrayal, and survival." - Eliza Knight, USA Today bestselling author of The Mayfair Bookshop

"A fascinating portrayal of London high society overshadowed by the threat of World War II, Georgie Blalock's The Last Debutantes follows Valerie de Vere Cole, niece of Neville Chamberlain, as she navigates the perilous waters of the London season...Atmospheric, moving and compelling, The Last Debutantes is a must read!" - Christine Wells, author of Sisters of the Resistance

"The Last Debutantes by Georgie Blalock gives us a glimpse into a social season that will be unlike all of the others that came before it...A story about friendship and finding yourself in a world that is about to change irrevocably, The Last Debutantes will appeal to historical fiction lovers." - Brenda Janowitz, author of The Grace Kelly Dress

"Storm clouds hover over high society on the brink of war, tarnishing the glamour of The Season in this wonderfully told story of love, war, and friendship." - Bryn Turnbull, author of The Woman Before Wallace

"An effervescent cocktail of a read, The Other Windsor Girl gives readers a scintillating glimpse into the fast life of the British post-war aristocracy as well as a peek behind the scenes when certain royals were behaving less than royally. A must-read for fans of The Crown!" - Stephanie Marie Thornton, USA Today bestselling author of And They Called It Camelot

"The Other Windsor Girl is a unique look at the outrageously mercurial Princess Margret and her inner circle, as seen through the eyes of her lady-in-waiting, the Honorable Vera Strathmore...Fans of The Crown and all things royal will devour this richly researched novel." - Renée Rosen, USA Today bestselling author of The Social Graces

"Blalock explores a creative interpretation of Margaret's familiar, unhappy story." - Washington Post on The Other Windsor Girl

"(An) up-close view of the equally beloved and reviled Princess Margaret." - Booklist on The Other Windsor Girlmehr

Autor

Georgie Blalock is a history lover and movie buff who loves combining her different passions through historical fiction, and a healthy dose of period piece films. When not writing, she can be found prowling the nonfiction history section of the library or the British film listings on Netflix or in the dojo training for her next black belt rank. Her novels include The Other Windsor Girl, The Last Debutantes, and An Indiscreet Princess.
