When we wish we "could have lived back then," we aren't thinking about the restrictions of earlier time periods...or the lack of conveniences! jenclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06046532245054911248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22616974.post-79748969614937353832018-05-07T16:16:26.590-05:002018-05-07T16:16:26.590-05:00I like it when historical fiction teaches me about...I like it when historical fiction teaches me about an era or historical period in a non-didactic manner. In fact, I think this can really emphasize, for instance in this case how women's lives were constrained, in a way that facts and figures cannot. This sounds like a great series, I will have to check it out. The only regency era mysteries I have read were the Julian Kestrel books by Kate Ross.Ruthiellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03871834571645928819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22616974.post-25104513792959667802018-05-07T08:07:02.298-05:002018-05-07T08:07:02.298-05:00wow i want to read the book JUST because of that c...wow i want to read the book JUST because of that cover!
