The Grand Sophy by Georgette Heyer

4.0

I enjoyed this way too much. Didn't realize when I started it that it was written in 1950 rather than the 1850, and once I did having a heroine that was more... madcap semi-feminist Mary Poppins than she was Emma started making more sense. I LOLed multiple times listening to the first few chapters in the car, then bought the $1.99 ebook because I didn't want to wait for my next commute day to finish it.
I agree with Felicia Day that the Jewish moneylender character sours things although his appearance is brief, and

the first cousin thing gives one pause. And the ending was a bit abrupt.

But highly diverting, and neat to read someone that apparently shaped a whole genre.
