This is a bit of a mixed bag post. I did manage to find my copy of The Mysteries of Udolpho (it did involve a later and a lot of dust), so I’m already to Go Gothic.
I’ve also seen the first episode of Lost in Austen. I liked it – I thought it was fun (plus it’s beautiful to look at).
While I was at the beach, I read Faro’s Daughter by Georgette Heyer. It is the perfect beach read – light, sparkling with all of the period detail we love about Heyer.
Here are some links to reviews and more information about Georgette Heyer
