I’m a huge Heyer fan and found it hard to pick just 5!
5 out of 40 is the top 5% — I suppose I could let people choose 10 and make the top 10% of her books lol
I have read most of her Regency novels over and over again as I just love them. My favorite is Regency Buck.
I’ve read most of her Regency romances and all of her crime novels. I find it difficult to just pick one (or five) but among my favorites are These Old Shades, Venetia, Faro’s Daughter, Devil’s Cub, The Grand Sophy, The Talisman Ring, Black Sheep, The Quiet Gentleman, Regency Buck, Lady of Quality and Behold, Here’s Poison.
I have read all but 2 of her historicals and al her crime fiction…sigh…Man could she write – dialogue and characterisations are simply perfect. My all time favourites are These Old Shades & Venetia (and The Devils Cub and Frederica and The Convenient Marriage…)
I’ve read them all, I’ve kept most of them, but I find some of them are wearing much better than others. I have yet to tire of Devil’s Cub or These Old Shades, and, though it’s not really a romance but more of a realistic women’s fiction, I think A Civil Contract is genius.
hard to pick just five!
I am rereading The Unknown Ajax right now, and wonder if anyone knows the name and/or author of the poem(?) that is quoted throughout this book?
