"Some Honeymoon!" by Charles Everett Hall is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book appears to be a romantic comedy with a strong element of farce, focusing on the trials and tribulations of a newlywed couple. The protagonist, John Ryder, a staunch and successful businessman, finds his life upended when he impulsively marries a young woman named Ruth Mont following a transatlantic shipboard romance. The core of the story seems to revolve around their eventful honeymoon, which quickly descends into chaos due to a series of unfortunate and comical incidents at a countryside hotel. The opening of "Some Honeymoon!" introduces John Ryder as a confirmed bachelor whose views on business and life are suddenly challenged when he meets Ruth Mont aboard a ship returning from Europe. Despite their brief acquaintance, Ryder proposes marriage and, after some hesitation, Ruth accepts. Their whirlwind wedding is followed by a journey to Pinewood Inn for their honeymoon, only for them to arrive in the midst of a management crisis—guests are being abruptly evicted, the bridge to the hotel collapses, and the staff are in disarray. Amidst the confusion, Ryder's business acumen takes center stage as he attempts to take charge of the chaotic situation, all the while contending with a cast of eccentric guests, suspicious new arrivals, and hints of deeper mysteries involving his new bride. The story begins with humor and energy, promising a lively blend of romantic entanglements, social comedy, and unexpected drama. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
