kayscr33klibrarian 's review for:
Cotillion
by Georgette Heyer
One reason I was interested in starting to read Gerogette Heyer was because in nearly every review I looked at they all listed each book as their favorite. With so many people loving every book I came across I felt I couldn't go wrong.
This was another great book. The books are actually quiet long and are not the fastest to read. As I said earlier, I have to really concentrate to catch all of the witty dialogue. In truth, I've noted that I am starting to think and talk funny after spending this past week reading these books. I am dying to find a time when I can say, "this just doesn't suit" or "you have persuaded me to " or "I will allow it that" or "I fancy you may be right" or "how the deuce am I able to kiss you" etc. The last quote comes straight from this book! :) The books occur over a lengthy period of time and the author doesn't rush the plot. The plots are also quiet complex with everything coming together at the end. The books are definitely romance books but with the additional of historical background and complex plot they are so much more!
This particular books is about a young girl, Kitty, who is told to inherit she must marry one of her guardians great-nephews. She comes up with a plan to snare one of them by pretending to be engaged to another. Things don't go quiet as planned but turn out so much better in the end!
