Grand Sophy

Georgette Heyer

4.03 AVERAGE


A master matchmaker in upper-class Regency England may have bitten off more than she can chew.

Somewhere between Jane Austen and The Importance of Being Earnest. Only read if you love a good farce, which I do.

Recommended for fans of ridiculous romantic comedies.

I actually listened to this on my commute. The recording was FABULOUS. I was laughing out loud my entire way through the book. So.Much.Fun.

Having been given a large pile of Georgette Heyer books to read when I was in my teens and not reading any of them I'm grateful to one of the groups I'm part of on here for pushing me to try one.

Was a lovely story with some very good, multifaceted characters. Can see that I will read many more of her stories after this one.

Delightfully fun story.

Good fun.

Chaotic fun

Hilarious. An excellent antidote for all sorts of blues.

Jane Austen-esque, if you don't miss the biting wit and social commentary.
