Faro's DaughterFaro's Daughter by Georgette Heyer

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


You could make a great emoticon set out of Georgette Heyer books. I mean, she wrote like 800, and she did so many things, she basically covered the entire gamut of human romantical pursuits. The emoticon for this book would be a squinchy scowly face with the tongue sticking out. An 'anything you can do I can do better' face, since that's basically how the hero and heroine communicate.

Fun, kind of forgettable, more conventional at the last than I was hoping. But sticking out your tongue is always a little enjoyable however old you are, so.
