I'm still in my Regency romance reading mood. I have two more books to add to my "read" list, as part of the 100 Books in 2012 Challenge. (Click on the link in the sidebar to learn more.)
The most recent books I read were:
6. The Mammoth Book of Regency Romance editted by Trisha Telep,
7. The General's Granddaughter by Dorothy Mack.
The Mammoth Book of Regency Romance true to its name was large. All the stories were good, and some were excellent. I might have wished some of them were longer, but all the stories were in the 10,000-word range, longer than a short story and about half as long as a novella. I had my favorites, as any reader would. If you've read this book, which story did you like best?
The General's Granddaughter was a book I've had for years, but it had fallen behind a stack of other books. I rediscovered it while dusting the shelf, and enjoyed it very much.
Despite having received three contemporary romances for Christmas, as well as a new research book, I have not yet opened a single one.
Do you ever get in a reading mood? If so, what time period or type of books are you most likely to choose?
