The Spanish Bride by Georgette Heyer
5.0
Muuyyyyyyyy Bieeeeeeeeenn ! Oh god ! This book ! This book was a gift from god to me, I didn't even plan to buy it. It just sort of came to me. Alas ! The adventure it took me on is now over ! It took to 2 weeks to read this but it was worth it !
Time consuming ? yes. Hard/old vocabulary ? Yes. Too much history in it ? Yes.
In some reviews these are marked as negatives of the book ! Are you serious ? This is exactly what is suppose be in historical romantic classic fiction !
Georgette Heyer did an amazing job on this one ! Made me her fan, I can't wait to read all of her books ( which are plenty) ! It's hard to believe she wasn't actually in the war with all the characters, the accuracy & the brilliance of describing environment and everything that happens around is just great ! You can really be there and feel the enjoyment,hunger,heavy rains,floods and what not ! The characters ( even the trivial ones ) were brilliantly created !
