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! 2w

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. 2w

Cathythoughts I‘m loving the cover on the book 😍 2w

LeahBergen @Cathythoughts It‘s pretty! 2w

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? 2w

CarolynM Sylvester is my current handbag book. I‘m not loving it as much as Sophy yet😆 2w

AvidReader25 @LeahBergen Thank you!!! I loved The Grand Sophy so much. It was my first. I‘ll try the others! 2w

LeahBergen @Reggie 😆😆 And I expect it will only get worse! 2w

LeahBergen @CarolynM Sylvester grew on me. Maybe it will for you, too! 2w

LeahBergen @AvidReader25 The Grand Sophy was my first, too. 😀 2w

AvidReader25 @LeahBergen I love that! It was so good. 💙 2w

Black Sheep | Georgette Heyer

pick

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 2mo

Ruthiella Love your paperback collection! 2mo

LeahBergen I liked this one, too! 2mo

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! 2mo

Librarybelle Lovely paperback edition! 2mo

BarbaraJean @Ruthiella @Librarybelle Thank you! Library book sales have provided so many treasures! 2mo

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!) 2mo

CarolynM There are so many Heyer‘s I fear I‘ll never read them all, but I will look out for this one😊 2mo

False Colours | Georgette Heyer

I think this is a lesser known Heyer, but for me it is up there with the best of them. Romance, comedy and great characters. Totally delightful, but have you ever seen a less appropriate cover for a Heyer @LeahBergen ?

willaful Oh man, and this is such a quiet book too! 2mo

LeahBergen Hahaha! Oh my … 2mo

Leftcoastzen Looks like a smutty cover !😁 (edited) 2mo

Frederica: A funny and brilliant clean Regency romance | Georgette Heyer

pick

This has been my handbag book over the last few weeks. It is a lot of fun, particularly the antics of Frederica's younger brothers, & I enjoyed the romance too. I can see why it's a lot of people's favourite Heyer, but it hasn't replaced The Grand Sophy in my affections.

LeahBergen I still like The Grand Sophy a bit better, too. 😄 4mo

The Unfinished Clue | Georgette Heyer

I do enjoy Heyer's mysteries. Always bright and sparkling dialog and lots of humor in characterization.

Thank you for the kind comments and good wishes for my recovery from surgery. I've had a couple of set backs but am finally really beginning to see some progress. I've still got a way to go. I tire extremely easily and everything seems difficult to do, but I can see my progress so am feeling more positive.

The Transformation of Philip Jettan | Georgette Heyer

I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it.

Bath Tangle (Original) | Georgette Heyer

Thank you, Leah, for this delightful package. I am particularly pleased with Bath Tangle because I have a couple of other Heyer‘s in this format. And, yes, the Kloester is an essential resource for a Heyer fan 😊. I love the teacup card too. It is so kind of you to think of me 😘. And I did follow your instruction 😆
