January #BookspinBingo is a LOT of me just trying to catch up on my #192025 challenge. I‘m still in the twenties. The NINETEEN-twenties! I‘m literally 100 years behind. 🤦🏻♀️
A few choices for this round, Happy Group!
pickOops, I almost forgot to post a review of this. It was Heyer‘s first published novel and I think it shows a bit in that there is a distinct lack of focus in the story. There‘s a lot going on with a lot of characters who all get fairly equal pages devoted to them. It took me a little while to be sure who I was supposed to be cheering for. But, as always, she creates great characters and fun adventures. #Romantsy
pickI could tell this was Georgette Heyer‘s first novel - she hasn‘t quite fine tuned her writing style and storytelling expertise in this one. Still a fun read though!
I‘ve had a lot of luck at the book swap library lately. Just look at this stack! All books I‘ve never read before.
Post#1 I went a little bit crazy at the library store in Lansing, Michigan today. These were the Gothics and Georgette Heyer‘s that I found.
Ugh. It‘s 4am and I‘ve been awake for half an hour. Jetlag!! Hopefully reading a bit will help.
pickA disgraced Lord who took the blamed for his brother's cheating at cards turns to life as a highwayman. Then he stumbles across a damsel in distress as she is about to be kidnapped. What unfolds is Georgette Heyer's first novel. Definitely working on getting her legs in this one and managing to sparkle anyway!
pickFinally got around to reading Heyer's first book, and it did not disappoint! Tracy's habit of abducting women and forcing his attentions on them was a bit off-putting though. Why is Jack all like, oh that Tracy, he's terrible to women but not a bad bloke overall? No, Jack! It's terrible, and he's terrible! So pick up your sword and duel this guy to the death already! Casual mistreatment of women aside, a very enjoyable story.
I have another #WonderWomanWednesday post. Re-discovered Georgette Heyer stories. Yipppppiiiieeeeeee.
