Oooh you're so lucky, I wish I hadn't read them all already & could start from scratch EnvyGrin. I read The Black Moth first but they're all brilliant.
SilverBrumby Now that's the spirit! Good thinking, lass Grin

Frederica - I love that one. And April Lady.
Venetia's great though.

I am halfway through Regency Buck at the moment, it having been recommended on here, and I am finding it a bit boring. Blush

I am hoping it will get better in the second half.

Oops. Sylvester...!! Apparently the talking book of it is done by Richard Armitage....is it very wrong of me to buy it for -me- my mother in law in the hope she will give it back to me....?

There's one for every mood. I second all of the above but These Old Shades is wonderful and then the joy of Devil's Cub.
The Convenient Marriage - also excellent - the Talisman Ring for a bit of intrigue and the fab Masqueraders. I could go on and on....
Enjoy!!!!!
Silvester also lovely.

No No Friday's Child is the best.

I'm so glad there are loads - that's one of the reasons I'm excited as I'll have so much pleasure ahead of me!

Diana Gabaldon you say...

I can't choose a favourite [bgrin]

Plumm · 25/01/2011 10:43

My faves are:

Sylvester
Arabella
Faro's Daughter (thinking about it, this one's my absolute favourite)

I hope you like them - there are loads to read!

The grand sophy! Or Fridays child.

RufousBartleby · 25/01/2011 10:41

I would second Regency Buck, but if you're after romantic historical fiction have you considered trying Diana Gabaldon? Oh my goodness its a whole world of (guilty!) reading pleasure Wink

I started with regency buck

StantonLacy · 25/01/2011 09:54

Regency Buck or the Grand Sophy to start...but dammit, they are pretty much ALL fantastic !

Cotillion is hilarious as are Sylvester and Arabella. Venetia is v.romantic in my opinion (Damerel anyone ?) Just. Get. Them. All.

There you are, the whole of MN will be along in a minute to tell you the same ! Grin
