I have a long train journey home this evening which means that a new Georgette Heyer is absolutely essential!
When I was a tween I loved Georgette Heyer so when this book came up as a Kindle deal I had to buy it. Not my favourite but a pleasure to read , set during the tail end of the Napoleonic Wars , Adam finds himself heir to an estate teetering on the brink of bankruptcy. The only way to save the family is to marry an heiress, Jenny, a plain practical woman, nothing like Julia his lovely neighbour. What follows is predictable, #romantsy
This one fell a little flat for me. It was still a nice comfort read, but I didn't find many laugh-out-loud moments. Read only after you've given The Grand Sophy, Frederica, Venetia, Cotillion, and These Old Shades a try.
