The Grand Sophy by Georgette Heyer

3.0

This was lovely. Witty, light-hearted, and hilarious. One star off for some anti-Semitic descriptions of a moneylender (even if she was trying to be "true to the time", it should have been something a character said, not a narrated character description) and the fact that as an individual, Sophy shows so little vulnerability as to seem almost inhuman. I'm not sure she was ever depicted as having a real moment of self-doubt or sadness throughout the entire book. Despite this, she never actually managed to be irritating. Quite the opposite: Sophy is one of the most charming Heyer heroines I've read.
