I really enjoy the managing/competent female trope who sets everything to rights with her meddling. Sophy is a stellar example of this as she puts her cousin's household to rights - nursing sick children, comforting anxious aunts, sorting out romances, and more. The book is light and easy to read, and while the romances are generally believable, don't come into this book expecting a great passionate one. This is a classic Georgette Heyer, though take note that there are some outdated/antisemitic tropes that I usually skip over whenever I reread.
