The Corinthian | Georgette Heyer

Pickpick

Almost every time I read a new Heyer I decide it's up there as my favourite! This one isn't quite as funny as Sophy, but I think it shades it for romance - Sir Richard's declaration made me swoon.

LeahBergen I loved this one! And I‘m totally the same: “Is this one my favourite?” 😂 1mo
MrsMalaprop Need to read more of her! I have Sophie on my shelf. 1mo

Regency Buck | Georgette Heyer

I took this Georgette Heyer off the shelf today (but then had to check Goodreads to see if I‘d already read it 😆).

AvidReader25 Do you have a favorite Heyer? I‘ve only read two and would love to read more! 3mo
LeahBergen @AvidReader25 I don‘t really have a favourite as I‘ve enjoyed all the ones I‘ve read. 😆 Hmm… maybe The Grand Sophy, Sylvester, Cotillion, Friday‘s Child? I‘m really enjoying this one so far! It was her first novel set in the Regency era (the previous ones were set in the Georgian era) and I guess it kickstarted the Regency novel as a genre. 3mo
Cathythoughts I‘m loving the cover on the book 😍 3mo

LeahBergen @Cathythoughts It‘s pretty! 3mo
Reggie Lolol‘ed on the checking of Goodreads to see if you‘ve read it. There‘s a couple of books lately from back in the day that have left me thinking-have I? 3mo
CarolynM Sylvester is my current handbag book. I‘m not loving it as much as Sophy yet😆 3mo
AvidReader25 @LeahBergen Thank you!!! I loved The Grand Sophy so much. It was my first. I‘ll try the others! 3mo
LeahBergen @Reggie 😆😆 And I expect it will only get worse! 3mo
LeahBergen @CarolynM Sylvester grew on me. Maybe it will for you, too! 3mo
LeahBergen @AvidReader25 The Grand Sophy was my first, too. 😀 3mo
AvidReader25 @LeahBergen I love that! It was so good. 💙 3mo
Bookwomble See now, you've been very tantalising with your bookmarks In your last few posts! Clear views would be appreciated by certain interested parties!🔖🧐😄 3mo
LeahBergen @Bookwomble Haha! I‘ll endeavour to be better in the future. This was a Jane Austen bookmark 😆 3mo

A cute, predictable romance full of witty repartee. I wish I was as quick on the verbal sparring as Effie.

I completed one of my outstanding #NetGalley reads! Thank you @AllDebooks for inspiring me to dive back in.

AllDebooks Yay! Well done. 👏 You are welcome, it has been fun. 3mo

Black Sheep | Georgette Heyer

This was SO MUCH FUN. I loved Miles & Abigail—their banter, humor, and romance, as well as the contrast & balance that becomes apparent between these two such well-matched characters. Heyer just gets everything right: Abigail‘s pitch-perfect near-caricature relatives—lovable and infuriating by turns—a surprising but thoroughly appealing male love interest, and comeuppance where it is due. ⤵️

BarbaraJean (Cont‘d) The ending is WAY too abrupt, but also adorable. All the praise for my May #DoubleSpin + 1966 pick for #192025. @TheAromaofBooks @Librarybelle 4mo
Ruthiella Love your paperback collection! 4mo
LeahBergen I liked this one, too! 4mo

TheAromaofBooks This is a favorite of mine. One thing I love is how often Heyer writes about slightly older heroines - instead of her being 16 or 17 and yearning for love, she's in her late 20s and happily single. And the way these two hit it off as friends at first just delights me! 4mo
Librarybelle Lovely paperback edition! 4mo
BarbaraJean @Ruthiella @Librarybelle Thank you! Library book sales have provided so many treasures! 4mo
BarbaraJean @TheAromaofBooks Yes, I loved that, too! This one could so easily have been about the niece, but Heyer chooses the less-conventional (and far more interesting) heroine instead. And the friends first vibe is my favorite (forever influenced by Anne and Gilbert!) 4mo
CarolynM There are so many Heyer‘s I fear I‘ll never read them all, but I will look out for this one😊 4mo
