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. 😄 2d

Another belated review—I read this in January for #AuldLangSpine!

This was so much fun. Set in Regency-era England, it follows “Gus” and Julia, spinster twin sisters who set out to rescue a friend‘s goddaughter and join forces with a charming rogue along the way. It‘s full of humor, adventure, and female empowerment, as well as more serious issues and higher stakes than I imagined there‘d be. I was so glad to see there‘ll be a book 2!

Librarybelle I‘m so excited for book two! 3w
quietjenn Oh, I just checked this out from the library yesterday! 3w

Miss Amelia's List | Mercedes Lackey
post image
Pickpick

Combines a lot of regency tropes with some interesting American focused issues and ideas and builds on the magical world Lackey originally set around WW1 England.
Amelia and her cousin come to England to help expand the family business and learn about Regency England customs while meeting eligible magicians.
4.5/5 read for a regency magical romance that‘s more focused on social issues than romance. Lackey packs a lots into this book, expertly.

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 😆

Cathythoughts Lovely 🥰 1mo
