Completed another challenge. :D

My Challenge Post

Congrats, Niq! I must listen to a Georgette Heyer book; I've been meaning to get around to that author.

What kind of heroine do you like? Young and innocent and maybe a bit silly? Or a little older and clever?

Here are the three that I reviewed:

The Grand Sophy

Frederica

The Quiet Gentleman

But I also liked a whole lot of others that I didn't get around to properly reviewing. I did do quick reviews for Romance Readers Reading Challenge group's Georgette Heyer Reading Challenge thread:

1. The Quiet Gentleman [8/30/11] 4 stars
I really liked it but my favorite part would be the very last scene between Mr. Morville and the step-mother.

2. The Black Moth [9/1/11] 4 stars
It was fun!

3. Frederica [9/3/11] 4 - 4.5 stars
I really liked the character of the Marquis. XD What an atypical romance hero!

4. Charity Girl [9/5/11] 2.5 stars
Unfortunately, I didn't enjoy this one as much because the plot was too similar to The Foundling, which I did enjoy. I thought the book was a bit too long. I got tired of the obstacles Desford ran across tracking down Charity's relatives. I didn't like Charity.

5. Sylvester [9/12/11] 3.5 - 4 stars
Sylvester reminded me of Mr. Darcy but he was crueler to Phoebe, which I didn't like so much.

6. The Nonesuch [9/12/11] 4 stars
I really enjoyed it. I thought that the romance was nicely done, and I liked almost all the characters.

7. Arabella [11/4/11] 3.5 stars
Took me a couple of months but I finally finished it. I couldn't get over Arabella's ridiculous performance before Beaumaris and Fleetwood when they first met. But once I recovered my sense of humor and read past it, it was quite enjoyable! I liked Arabella. She was young but still wise enough not to fall so obviously for Beaumaris. Beaumaris isn't quite on the level of Marquis in Frederica, but he was just as fun. I liked Arabella's and Beaumaris's relationship and interactions, and how they use each other.

I more recently purchased The Toll-Gate. I might read that as my next Georgette Heyer.

Edit: Combining later post at mid-Nov to this one.

Ok. So, The Toll Gate was 8.

9. The Talisman Ring

I finally finished it. It took me some time to get into it. It started off a bit slow. The whole ambiance was rather gothic which wasn't entirely to my taste. Eustacie was rather immature and silly, but she was also fun. Sarah was also silly but I got the sense it was more of a "I'm bored and I like silliness" rather than "I'm young, immature and silly". I liked seeing Tristram's reactions to Eustacie's silly talk, and I liked how Sarah poked fun at Tristram. One of the reviews compared the characters to Pride & Prejudice. I could see the resemblance, but I also see the differences - and I appreciate both. I ended up liking this book quite a lot. There were quite a few places that made me fall into giggles and laugh or snicker out loud (and in public too). I gave it a 3.5 stars.

10. The Grand Sophy 3.75 stars

I really, really liked it! I loved Sophy. It is soo rare that I genuinely love a female protagonist, but I loved her. My only (well, 2) gripe is: 1) due to how people spoke of the author's anti-Semitism, I couldn't help but be more aware and a little offended by the caricature of the money-lending Jew. However, if I had not read about the anti-Semitism, I think that I would have accepted this attitude as being "period" and 2) I'm coming across so many romance heroes who automatically have great command over animals. It's rather maddening. I want to read of an animal/pet who doesn't obey the hero and simply obeys the heroine and no one else.

11. Regency Buck 3.5-4 stars

Given that I ended up enjoying this book, I'm a little bemused about the fact that I'd only just finished it a couple of days ago, and already I've forgotten much of the story. And to think I had planned on reviewing it later too... I do know that I loved seeing Judith and Worth trying to out-maneuver each other. It was so fun! And then Judith's reactions when Worth out-maneuvers her...

Wow! This is great, Niq; my library has several audiobooks. I like most heroines - young, old and in-between. I'm glad you liked as I have heard that is well narrated.

You might also want to look into and . They seem to be two of the most popular of Heyer's historical romances. I've read both but years ago so I don't remember anything about them except that I did enjoy them.

Thanks, Niq!

Haha, thanks. And thanks for the cool challenge! I can already tell i'm gonna like this group. :-)

This is my first D.S. book ever, actually. I enjoyed it enough that I just picked up another one at the library today. Funny story - on the elevator heading up to my 26th floor office, a coworker of mine inquired as to what I was reading. When I blushed and showed her, she told me she's friends with D.S.'s daughter and has met D.S. (I work in San Francisco, where she owns a multi-million dollar mansion). Apparently she's a wonderful person! Nice, funny, unassuming...

Could you recommend to me your favorite? There are so many to wade through I don't know how to pick out the good ones.

Rachael, I can't even remember my fav of DS, it has been so long. Sorry! I took a peek and saw you have Dean Koontz on your bookshelf... Have you read - it is about a serial killer, but there is a love story also. Same with

This is fun!!
