The Toll-Gate

Rating:
Summary: Un-engrossing
Review: I am a long-time reader of Georgette Heyer and, unfortunately, this is one of her few books that completely failed to draw me in. Perhaps it was because I was expecting a Regency and ended up with a mystery novel, but the book failed to evoke my interest, much less, perhaps, than some of her other mysteries, and I never managed to finish it. Some people will like the idea of a Regency/mystery, but I prefer them separated- it's something to keep in mind before purchasing this book.

Summary: Gentle Giant and true love at a toll-gate!
Review: I am an unabashed "Heyer" fan and own almost everything she has ever written but I believe that this is one of her best as far as humor and wit are concerned. These "characters" all grab your heart, make you both laugh and cry ... sometimes all at once! One of my favorites that I have read and re-read many times over. Enjoy!

Summary: Funny and Absurd
Review: Unlike a previous reviewer, I have read this one many times and find the dialogue so funny I laugh out loud. Not the typical heroine and hero but very real characters. I just love this book.
