Susan in NC (susanncreader) | 4143 comments Oh, great choices! I’m up for any of these three!

Susan in NC (susanncreader) | 4143 comments Just saw comments over on The Foundling threads that reminded me of a fun, similarly “rompish” book, and I could use funny right now in light of world news, so I’ll nominate Sprig Muslin.

Wanted to nominate Cotillion for laughs, but it’s too soon by our lists.

It's nice to have the titles for several months in a row.

Yes, it gives people the chance to plan their reading schedules!


message 22: by Jackie (new)

Jackie | 1728 comments yes, a good looking schedule and I'm especially excited for The Reluctant Widow which might be my very favorite Heyer.

Julie | 233 comments Somehow I missed the notifications for this, but pleased to see a couple in there that I haven’t read. Looking forward to them!

Notifications aren't working properly for a large number of Goodreads members. :/


Susan in Perthshire (susanageofaquarius) | 1448 comments I am so delighted with the solution.

I am so looking forward to the discussion about ‘The Reluctant Widow’ - so much so that I am happy to read the other one! Thank you Carol and Crotterbee! .


message 26: by Andie (new)

Andie | 37 comments I can't wait to do my first goodreads "read" ... with a GH book, no less! I am definitely in for The NoneSuch and The Reluctant Widow. I have never really gotten into the mystery books, but perhaps this will give me a little push. We'll see!

Many thanks to the moderators and organizers here!
