These Old Shades is a gas. It's by a long margin not the best Heyer but it's a lot of fun. I like the sequel too. I just bought the first two Hana Kimi and am very excited to read them. Don't spoil me or say anything about them. All I know is that they're cross dressy.
The great love that does not work out gives me a very strange feeling that I find hard to describe. It's like one part of me is brain washed into desperately wanting the two to walk off into the sunset together and part of the enjoyment of love gone wrong is the weird pulling feeling you get from the love-must-work brainwashing being thwarted. Or something.
Aargh! See? It's so hard to describe what the strange pulling ouch pleasure of tragedy is.
Oh, and yes also on the whole thank God I'm not gay bit. Erk.
