Mistress of Mellyn | Victoria Holt

Look what just came to my desk for consideration. Four ivory matching 1972 Doubleday gothic romances by Victoria Holt. Mint condition. Shall I add them to the library‘s collection? #romance #oldschool #oldcoolbooks #librariansoflitsy

Leniverse Squee! 😍 I've never read any Victoria Holt, but they are such a pretty set! 6y
thebluestocking Yes please!! I ❤️ Victoria Holt. I was obsessed with her books as a teen. My favorite is On the Night of the Seventh Moon. (edited) 6y
jillrhudy @thebluestocking that one does look good! 6y

Aimeesue No, those look like TERRIBLE books. You should probably take them home to evaluate them first. 😁 6y
jillrhudy @Aimeesue They bear Very Careful Examination. 6y
Aimeesue Serious Study, even! 6y
jillrhudy How else can one know if they are suitable for unserious readers of midcentury gothic schmaltz? 6y
