Sylvester
by Georgette Heyer
Oh this was most entertaining! I was unable to put this book down and finished it in one sitting. I feel this is the first Georgette Heyer book where I truly liked both the male and female leads. Sylvester was endearing and had some very comical lines. I must confess that I wasn’t very fond of his calling Phoebe, sparrow (I thought this pet name completely ruined all romantic moments). I found the plot riveting from start to finish (the most plot driven Regency Romance book I’ve read so far). I loved Phoebe’s frankness and her resolve , and I could not have asked for a better “brother” than Tom. This is by far my favorite Georgette Heyer book (strangely they continue to improve in my ranks), and I thank Richard Almatage for a terrific narration of Sylvester (of note, near the end of the book I couldn’t recognize Sylvester and although I enjoyed his portrayal of embarrassment and vulnerability, I would’ve preferred being able to feel it was Sylvester to the very end):
