The Guesthouse on the Green #14
The O'Maras go Greek
Welcome to the guesthouse on the Green, where Mammy and her girls will make you feel part of the family. Settle in and enjoy your stay at O'Mara's, where stories abound, romance lurks and laughter sounds.
If you've ever fancied visiting Santorini in the Greek Islands, now is your chance because Patrick O'Mara is about to wed Cindy. She might be the woman of Patrick's dreams, but the wedding destination is not the stuff of Mammy O'Mara's dreams. What's wrong with a church wedding in Ireland? She can't be doing with all this barefoot on the beach nonsense. Still and all, it's an excuse for a family holiday, and she is all about family.
You're family too, so what are you waiting for? Pack your bags. We've got a wedding to go to!

My first book off Kindle Unlimited. Slow at times. A whole chapter explaining a fairly uneventful horse ride was a bit dragged out.

If you are a fan of Marian Keyes Walsh Sisters you will love the O’Mara Family! Normally, with any series, 3-4 books is my limit but, I am fully committed to this series! Each story involves guest of the Inn, or in these case the owners of where the family stayed and one of the family members. This story was Patrick’s wedding to his longtime American girlfriend Cindy. Maureen and her daughters, their husbands and kids make for an enjoyable, easy, fun summer read!

While I have enjoyed reading this series, I find it hard to believe that the author obviously forgot the name of Aisling’s twin boy (it’s now Connor, not Kieran Finley as he was named in the previous 2 books).
Similarly, the author originally had Nina from a small village in Spain, then she was from Madrid, and then she was from Toledo.

as Always, Absolutely Fabulous!
The O’Mara Family visiting Greece for Patrick & Cindy’s wedding is a delight!
I love reading anything in Irish fiction and would love to be a part of the O’Mara Clan!
Always hilarious, romantic and full of happiness; start at the first book and you’ll love them all!

Another enjoyable romp with one of my favourite Irish families. Patrick and Cindy are getting married…..on the beach…barefoot…..on Santorini……by a celebrant not a priest. Mammy is shocked, but determined to support her baby boy. The whole family travels over for the wedding and a week's holiday in the sun.

o’Mara’s Greek wedding
Another laugh out loud venture with the O’Mara family. This wedding and all the interactions with the brides family and the owners of the pensions where they stay in Santorini are such fun. With a happy ending for everyone
Once again it’s a joy to read these books of yours Michelle Vernal

Don't read this in bed
What can I say, another stonking good read. I'm sure these books just get better. If you sleep with a partner, don't read this in bed. My husband thinks I've lost it. I was really laughing out loud in bed reading. Thanks Michelle can't wait for the next.

Another in the (long) series of books about the O'Mara family. This one takes them all to Greece for the wedding of Patrick, the only son. He is Maureen's baby boy, but he has borrowed money from her without repaying, has a somewhat shady occupation, and is engaged to a bosomy babe who does commercials for feminine products. Despite all this, they all embark for the Greek Island of Santorini, enjoy several days of sightseeing, eating wonderful food, and a LOT of drinking! The women shop for wedding outfits with the help of a drag queen, who is also the wedding presider. The O'Mara clan are staying at two guest houses that are side by side. Maureen takes note that the proprietors, Giorgios and Wendy, should be a couple after their spouses have dies. She nudges this along. After Patrick has a touch of cold feet, the wedding goes off in spectacular fashion. On to the next!

Such an enjoyable read! I love following this zany family's escapades. One thing that knocked it down a peg for me were the several misused words, for instance the repeated use of the word phased instead of fazed.

Another brilliant book in the O’Mara series. A lovely story of the family travelling to Greece for a family wedding and the events that happen to them and the amazing people they encountered. Having been to Santorini I can appreciate the scenery mentioned.

Irish Banter
Love the way the O’Maras women make comments about everything about them and surrounding them. Taking the piss is one of their favourite past times, it makes me laugh out loud.

The latest book of the O’Maras “Guesthouse in the Green” and as usual doesn’t disappoint! They are all hilarious, the whole family! Do yourselves a favour and read this set of books! Irish humour is the best!
I do hope that the books carry on I need more!!

O’Mara’s Go Greek
I love this series, and glad that the O’Maras meet some new friends, plus a new location to share and enjoy.

There were some funny bits but I didn’t enjoy it as much as the earlier books, I don’t know if it was because it was set outside Dublin that that made it different.

Brilliantly funny
A brilliant continuation of the O Mara stories of a heart warming family of Irish wit and wisdom. Well worth a read

This was one of the funnier books in the series. The part where the sisters first see their maid of honor dresses had me laughing out loud.
