Happy 110th Birthday, Ms. Heyer

In honor of Georgette Heyer's 110th birthday on August 16, The British Babes Book Brigade and Sourcebooks have a GREAT promotion during the month of August. Georgette Heyer was a very prolific writer known today as "the Queen of Regency Romance". She published a total of 56 novels in the romance, historical fiction and mystery genres. Her romances in particular have been loved by generations of readers for their vivid characterizations, extraordinary plots and historical accuracy.  The regencies are clever and quite often hilarious comedies of manners involving misunderstandings and a great deal of charm and heart. My personal favorite is Frederica, followed closely by The Nonesuch and The Quiet Gentleman. Georgette Heyer's novels are a perfect antidote for the pressures of modern life and are meant to be read and re-read.
