Regency Reading

My To Be Read List is growing these days.  I have discovered a new author and I am getting ready to settle in to a nice evening of reading her world.


Stephanie Sloane is on my list and I will get back to Anne Lethbridge very soon.  I am eager to read these two authours and give my opinions on both of them.


Persuasion will be on the agenda for this weekend too. I am planning to spend most of the Fourth Of July weekend reading after doing various crazy things like a parade and family dinners, etc...


There will be a change in my world soon and you can find it at The Blue Rose Journal, my personal blog.  If you are familiar with me and my writing, you will notice big changes in the way it is set up.  I hope you like the new look!


My TBR list is as follows:


~Persuasion by Jane Austen
~The Devil In Disguise by Stephanie Sloane
~The Angel In My Arms by Stephanie Sloane
~More Than A Mistress by Anne Lethbridge
~Scandalous Innocent by Juliet London
~The Dangerous Lord by Sabrina Jeffries


As you can see, the list is a bit long her today, but I am going to read them with a lot of Godiva, Early Grey and what is left of my sanity in between loads of laundry, house cleaning and work.


I am also still working on the construction of this page and hopefully I will be able to get more info and some other tidbits here soon!  I have a few more authours to add to the links, and I will finish that momentarily.


Well, I am off to finish a little construction here, shower and turn page 1 of Stephanie Sloane's Regency Rogues!

The Gamekeeper's Lady By Ann Lethbridge

I had concidered for some time now doing some reviews on Regency Romances, but until now I have not had the opportunity.  Since this is a blog about my time in this lovely world and Jane Austen's world as well, I thought it would be appropriate to do so.


Since I am reading Ms. Austen's work, I thought that reading modern fiction as well as the Jane Austen re-writes, prequels and sequels along with movies based off the works and the time period would be a nice direction to help me get to where I am in need of going.  What better way to do so than doing what I do best: review!


I have never really read many Regency Romance Novels.  I had never thought that they would be that interesting until I picked up Ann Lethbridge's The Gamekeeper's Wife.


The Gamekeeper's Lady 


As the description on Ms. Lethbridge's page states, it is a lovely take on Cinderella, and quite enchanting to read.  I couldn't put this down. I fell instantly in love with Lord Robert and Frederica.  Two flawed and beautiful souls who are wonderful.


I love the way the story was written, it seemed to flow very well and each character was as great as the next.


I do  have her next book in the Rakes In Disgrace series, More Than A Mistress, and I am looking forward to spending some quality time in this one as well.


I plan to go back and get the rest of Ann's books in the future, since I am now officially a fan!


I also have Mary Balogh, Sabrina Jeffries,  and Juliet London and many others in my list of To Reads so hopefully, intersperced with Jane Austen will be these lovely authors along with Austen Authors like Sharon Lathan to get through very soon.  


~Happy Reading!
