The Masqueraders by Georgette Heyer
4.0
This was a fun and charming read — I can imagine reading more Heyer after this. It took a while to get the hang of this story— partly because of the audiobook; I thiiink the narrator was pronouncing “milady” like “my lady”, which made me think the book was narrated by a servant character. I had to listen to the first chapter three times before I was able to follow what was actually happening. Once I was in, though, it spoke directly to my id. Actually, at some points it was almost too exquisite— I kept thinking of Daniel Lavern’s newsletters. They’re what tempted me to try Heyer in the first place, but wow he did not exaggerate. Overall I’m glad I picked it up even if it will probably be a while before my next Heyer; I do think there will be a next Heyer eventually.
