jennysjw 's review for:

Powder and Patch by Georgette Heyer
1.0

If this had been my first Heyer novel, I would never have read another one. I know Heyer was young and this was one of her earliest novels, but the writing is stilted, the dialogue is unbelievable, the characters are annoying, and the romance is not romantic.

My favorite part of this novel was a comedic moment when Clo
receives 3 proposals and finds herself engaged to 2 men in one evening.


There are 2 endings. I disliked the ending of Powder and Patch and hated the ending of The Transformation of Philip Jettan.
