These Old Shades
Explore how Georgette Heyer’s novels shaped family dinners and left a lasting impact on my life, blending historical romance with sharp wit, to create memories of shared laughter and companionship. #GeorgetteHeyer #FamilyTraditions #HistoricalRomance
My mother’s health was very poor. Suffering from chronic pain disorders and insomnia, she would get up around noon, and spend the entire afternoon preparing supper slowly, with many breaks to rest. She would breakfast late, and graze as she cooked; by 6pm when we would sit down to eat, she wasn’t hungry. My father was bone-tired and famished, due to his physically demanding job as a welder, and…

Next Heyer read. Check out the pulpy cover. I think a new favourite trope is gentleman being amused by and then falling in love with impulsive Heroines #arabella #georgetteheyer #regencyfiction https://www.instagram.com/p/B1pjuY6Bbm4/?igshid=g4m4w5o3toyg

The Black Moth - Georgette Heyer
Tumblr media
Classics just don’t age! As a huge fan of all things Austen, Bronte and Gaskell how could I not also love Georgette Heyer. As the author of 57 published books, she is well represented in the literary world and I am the proud owner of 27.
Blurb Below:
A damsel in distress, a dastardly duke and a highwayman. One of these is not what they seem.
The last thing Diana Beauleigh expected was to be waylaid on her way home in the company of her aunt.
Mr. Everard is a man of the world who takes what he wants. Even if, the thing is a most unwilling female.
The highwayman was just minding his own business but when a lady is in distress, one has to play the gentlemen.
Swords are drawn, guns are fired and the past is to be rewritten.
Don’t miss this whirlwind romantic adventure!

🤣 non fate arrabbiare il nonno! Fuggite al suo sguardo! È in cerca della prossima preda 👀 👉🏻 #leredemisterioso A Darracott Place vive un arcigno, severo Lord con la moglie e i pargoli del defunto figlio. Un problema lo assilla. Gli è rimasto in vita un solo figlio ma non è lui il suo erede, bensì il nipote rinnegato, nato da suo figlio (deceduto) e la figlia di un tessitore. Il lord non lo vuole come erede ma non ha scelta, lo manda a chiamare ma questi … beh l’inizio non è dei migliori. Doveva arrivare di mattina ma si presenta di sera, sporco e non fa bella impressione con i suoi modi alla mano. Suo nonno vuole “sistemarlo”, vuole renderlo un perfetto lord è già che c’è… perché non farlo sposare con l’altra nipote? Così resta tutto in famiglia. 👍🏻 Ci sono vari personaggi, una dozzina circa ma vengono descritti bene e non si crea confusione. 👍🏻 Il lord mi è super simpatico, con le sue occhiatacce e il suo carattere prepotente. Tiene tutti sull’attenti o quasi. Alcuni sono immuni a lui. 👍🏻Hugo fa rizzare a tutti i capelli in testa. È gioviale, genuino, schiva con facilità le frecciatine avvelenate del nonno. Non usa la carrozza ma cavalca e si arrangia! Orrore! Niente cameriere personale! E per cambiarsi impiega solo venti minuti e non un’ora! 👎🏻 Non ho apprezzato la vasta parte dedicata al #contrabbando a mio avviso ha rallentato la lettura, rendendola anche più monotona. 👎🏻👍🏻 Ho apprezzato molto l’inizio e la fine ma non la parte centrale che ho trovato più lenta. 👍🏻 Umorismo, misteri, avventure, litigi, romanticismo, fantasmi. Una saga familiare in cui c’è un po’ di tutto. ❓Conoscete già questa autrice? Avete letto qualche suo libro? Io ho adorato il suo #ildandydellareggenza #georgetteheyer #libri2022 #lectureterminée #reseñasdelibros #febbraioneilibri #antrodilibri #libridifebbraio22 #stayconape #lombradibarbara #bibliophilelegentibus #consigliandopilloledilibri #amicandito #ilclubdeilettorifelici #storiebookite https://www.instagram.com/p/CaZeRwsMd5q/?utm_medium=tumblr

And now for something completely different! Let's talk about The Grand Sophy an audio play adaptation of the book by Georgette Heyer. The Grand Sophy is a light regency drama about the Grand escapades of Sophy, the 19 year old daughter of Sir Horace Stanton-Lacy, who is a well to do gentleman and British diplomat. Sophy's mother having died when she was young, Sir Horace brought young Sophy with him on all his travels, teaching her to ride, shoot, and drive (carriages) with the best of them. But oh my, this just won't do! Sir Horace has decided that at 19, it's time for Sophy to "come out" into society, and so she finds herself in London, without her father, and staying with cousins. Sophy's fearless nature, love of riding, and wit soon rub abrasively against some of her relatives and their friends as she does any number of things that just aren't done! as a woman in Regency England. But she slowly wins them over with her sparkling charm, wit, beauty, and joie de vivre. At 6, 20ish minute episodes, The Grand Sophy is a short listen ready for cooking, cleaning, or running an errand. Well produced, and casted, you'll think you've fallen into an episode of Masterpiece Theater. If you like light regency dramas, like Emma, Masterpiece Theater, or a delightful, unconventional female character, then The Grand Sophy is for you!
