    Cotillion - A Lively Dance for Four Couples
  

*by G***E on Reviewed in the United States on August 26, 2017*

So, what’s a Regency cotillion? Four couples facing form a square, then everyone change partners and dance! I admit I’m a Georgette Heyer fanatic, but this book is far beyond something fun for her fans. It sparkles, it shines, and it’s so laugh-out-loud funny you shouldn’t read it anywhere near someone sleeping. It even has a little something to say, in a sly way that sneaks up on you.Matthew Penicuik is a grouchy tightwad. (A tightwad named “penny-quick” – I thought only Dickens could get away with that.) He has no heirs apart from his adopted daughter, Kitty Charing, and a broad assortment of great-nephews, any one of whom can inherit the money, if he’s the one who marries Kitty. Matthew calls everyone concerned to a dinner at Arnside House, to have the fun of telling them while he’s still alive. The plot device works, for the most part because of the well-drawn characters of all the nephews. Kitty’s a nice girl with a level head, but she’s lived as a virtual prisoner, and she’s desperate to get two things – a trip to London, and a little payback from Jack Westruther, the handsome cousin she’s always adored. He is also the rakish nephew who doesn’t bother showing up for the dinner, thereby humiliating Kitty. Deeply wounded, she wheedles another of the nephews into helping her have both things, by putting on a sham engagement. Freddy Standen, Jack’s cousin, is not a rake, nor is he particularly handsome. Actually, he’s a fashion-obsessed numbskull, but he’s too nice to say no to Kitty. Despite a skeptical Uncle Mathew, the scheme works, and sets her free for a month in London, to be formally introduced to Freddy’s family as well as society.Now the dance begins, nephews, cousins, friends and acquaintances in constantly-shifting romantic motion in Regency London. The situations are funny, the dialogue bright, and Freddy Standen is one of the best characters ever put on paper. Heyer herself divied up most of her male leads into two categories she labeled Mark I and Mark II; suave, rich and world-weary, or a little more rakish and savage. But both are Alpha males, power players. With Freddy, it’s as if she decided to take a secondary character, someone goofy like Sherry’s boon companion Ferdy Fakenham in Friday’s Child, and look a bit deeper. On the surface, Freddy is Bertie Wooster down to the ground, an adorable airhead not the least ashamed of what he is. He lets his brother at Oxford be the brain-box. Freddy never whips off his glasses and becomes a superhero, but there’s a bit more to him than meets the eye, and his skewed vision of the world is hysterical. Freddy’s father, Lord Legerwood, is a person Kitty holds in awestruck admiration for his intellect and well-bred wit. His scenes with his eldest son are a riot, with a tolerant tone of, “Freddy, I’m astonished. You have unplumbed depths.” He’s the Jeeves to Freddy’s Wooster.But these aren’t the only great characters. They’re all great, and so a fast-moving book with lots of players is never the least confusing. In a brilliant stroke, one of the nephews, Lord Dolphinton, is a bit slow. Well, more than a bit, actually. “Seven-months baby,” Freddy says. It would never have occurred to me, to write an earl who was just plain simple. I have visions of the politically correct going postal over Dolph, but I don’t think Heyer has to be defended with the standard “product of her time” argument. Dolph is played for laughs, no less than anyone else, but he’s a touching character who takes a surprising journey of his own. In fact, everyone here takes a road trip, and they all come out the other side knowing a lot more about themselves.I thought Venetia was Georgette Heyer’s best historical romance, but now it has company. In fact, in some ways, Cotillion is even better, because of its flawless pace and plot. When you’re done, don’t give it away. You’ll want to read it again.

    A delightful Regency romp!
  

*by C***E on Reviewed in the United States on June 2, 2021*

controlled by a parent, and discussion of pregnancy.OK this one took me a while to get into, I won't lie. The opening few chapters didn't catch hold of me for a good while - this is actually the second time I've tried to read it, and I only made it two chapters in before getting bored the first time. But MAN am I glad I decided I was in a Regency mood and tried it again, because this was such a ridiculously tropey romp. Fake betrothal to escape a tight fisted guardian who has never allowed our ingenue to go to London! Cousins who aren't actually cousins all expected to propose to said ingenue but being varying levels of reluctant! An actual cousin who isn't who he says he is in other ways! Elopements! Perplexed family members! Freddy being the best dressed person basically anywhere with OPINIONS on proper fashion!Seriously, it was just a delight in so many ways. The fakedating/fakebetrothed plot worked so much better than I was expecting and both Kitty and Freddy were so damned earnest I could hardly stand it. I wanted both of them to get their happily ever after and happily for me, they did indeed.So yes, if you are in the mood for a Regency romp that reads more like a comedy than many Regency romances I've read, I think you'll enjoy this one!

    Brilliant
  

*by S***N on Reviewed in the United States on April 25, 2019*

This was The first book I read by this author. As I started reading it I didn’t know what I was getting myself into. The writing style is very different as it uses almost all dialogue. I almost stopped reading the book. But I have heard this author is a highly praised Regency writer. So I muddled through for the first couple of chapters. I am glad I did. The dialogue was delightful and funny.  I liked the main characters Kitty and Freddy.  As I read, I wasn’t sure if Kitty would end up with the rake or not. Toward the end I was rooting for Freddy. The author did an excellent job of making you feel as if you are in regency London. I loved how the British Museum was described. I was in stitches. I would definitely read other books by this author.. It is sure to be a delightful 8 to 10 hours of reading!
