Book Review: Can't Get Enough of Heyer
Summary: 5 Stars
Here's my sister, Shannon Hyle's feelings on this author (and I heartily agree):
"I hate it when I get in the mood for a certain author and nothing else will do. Sometimes one book will satisfy and I can move on, but right now it's Georgette Heyer or nothing! I read The Masqueraders, The Toll Gate, Sprig Muslin, The Black Moth, These Old Shades, and Cousin Kate all in a row and still I hunger. I have a few more Heyers somewhere, but apparently the book thieves have been to house and I can't seem to find them.
I yearn for them. My mother-in-law had said she had some in her motorhome. Maybe she's been holding hostage my False Colours or Faro's Daughter or Sylvester, the Wicked Uncle. But once we arrived, she says they must have packed them up and put them in the shop. Aggh! She's killing me here!
This accelerating addiction to Ms Heyer is a troubling sign. It's not like a candy bar, I can't run to the nearest store and pick one up. As far as I know, all of her titles are out of print. There was a brief revival of some of her titles 2000-2004 but most of her 54 books have been out of print long enough that used book stores won't take them in trade.
Yeepee! We happened past a Borders and I begged to stop-just in case. They had single copies of three Heyer reprints snuggled deep in their romance shelves. The Grand Sophy, which I know I own somewhere, These Old Shades, just read-see earlier and Beauvallet! Yeepee...one I haven't read even!"
