Venetia is at 25 convinced that she is very much on the shelf. This is both a familiar and favorite plot for me.įirst of all the characters were fantastic. Venetia is the story of rake on the road to reformation and a sheltered miss that is not all shy, finding love against the wishes and good opinion of most everyone.
I took that $1.99 plunge and bought a copy. I asked my Heyer-loving friends about a different Heyer novel and I was encouraged to read Venetia instead. The opportunity came last week as several of her novels were discounted for Kindle. But recently I listened to Kat Mayo interview a Heyer scholar Jennifer Kloester, and it intrigued me enough to start actively thinking of reading one. I found it intimidating to even approach her booklist because of the sheer number of books on it. Georgette Heyer was a prolific writer of historical romances and she is frequently named checked by many current romance novelists and fans. Ever since I started reading romance, I've been hearing people talk about Heyer.
