Free talk on Georgette Heyer’s crime novels from the wonderful person who brought us the Heyer conference.
Any excuse to re-read Footsteps in the Dark 🥰

@ladybnunney @EmmaOrchardB @JaneDunnAuthor @SophieHIrwin @ElizabethWelke Loved Worth & Beaumaris as a teen - less so now. Leonie seems irritatingly childish now (sorry!). Love Hugo (partly due to great audiobook) & Waldo (barely noticed them back then). Frederica & Alverstoke both great, also Abby & Miles

@ElizabethWelke @JaneDunnAuthor @EmmaOrchardB @SophieHIrwin @NovelistJessica I started rereading for the 1st time in decades just before Covid. They've been great comfort reading, but the different perspective with age (& the additional pov from others in readalong) have also been great

Such an amazing book! #ReadingHeyer
Have you read GEORGETTE HEYER'S REGENCY WORLD, by @JenKloester?
It contains a wealth of information on the Regency life in Georgette Heyer and Jane Austen's novels. I was researching carriages and coaching today and wanted to share this tidbit about 4-In-Hand carriages.
"The four-in-hand, also known as a drag, usually referred to a closed carriage pulled by four horses such as the Mail and the public stagecoach. Similar in design to each other, these carriages were built to accommodate both people and freight, with a solid central body suspended over a wooden perch undercarriage with springs, a large boot at the rear with a seat for outside passengers and another space for luggage under the driver's box. The roof was also built to hold passengers as well as luggage and the total weight of a four-in-hand could sometimes exceed three tons. A sizeable coach had room for six people inside and eight to twelve persons could find room on the back, on the roof and on the coveted seat next to the driver." Chapter 8
I highly recommend GEORGETTE HEYER'S REGENCY WORLD. It is both informative and entertaining.

@maryenthuses I'm listening to it at the moment as well. His indignation at the condition of the Elgin marbles is hilarious. ("This one doesn't have any arms, that one doesn't have a head. They're charging us money when bits are missing!") 🤣

#ReadingHeyer fans know it well.
A peek inside the 18th century Pickering Place in St James’s this afternoon: London’s smallest square. 🎄
Lots of chatter the site may soon crash. If so, I’ll say for me this was a wonderfully companionable place. Hats off to all from #GeorgetteHeyerReadalong & #ReadingHeyer and founder Lucie — perhaps we will find ourselves all together once again on the road to Dijon
Every age elevates some people and humbles others. Everyone criticizes the time they live in, because it destroys everything that was new and ages their children—everything in our time comes to an end, except hope.
—Salama ibn Zayd ibn Nubāta al-Fahmī (Syria, fl 700)
@ladybnunney Ooh yes. Definite Heyero look. Could be Avon as well.

Ce que l’on appelle un objet Louvre - tabatière du duc de Choiseul - Louis Roucel et Louis-Nicolas Van Blarenberghe, 1770-1771 - un monde en soi en 8 x 6 x 2,4 cm - œuvre mythique, souvent publiée, jamais vue en public depuis sa création - Toutes et tous Mécènes! @MuseeLouvre
@LBABooks That's one of my favourites, & the Barbosa covers are the best.
Got excited when I found a Heyer in the local charity shop recently
It's Royal Escape, but I suppose better than nothing

@SarahTyner2 Combination of Leaky Peg & Quatern Sue? (At least, I think that was the name of the disreputable character Arabella doesn't want feeding the child gin)
#ReadingHeyer
@HilaryAndre1 Just what I thought! It must have been the proximity of the #HomeOffice to #TothillFields that reminded them of our own dear #LeakyPeg - an altogether more endearing character than #LeakySue however! #ReadingHeyer #Arabella #LifeImitatesHeyer
I WAS JUST THINKING THIS! #readingheyer
@heyerpodcast @maryenthuses Him: "Is that a new shampoo you've been using, m'lady?"
Her: 🙄🙄🙄

#ReadingHeyer Picked these up in the free books box at work. What exactly is he looking at on the cover of April Lady?
