Janga on Twitter mentioned Romance Wiki. <br /><br />I have some M&B's from the 60's that are now stored in ziplock bags--they're so fragile. I also have an ancient copy of Heyer's <i>These Old Shades</i>. Heyer is one author who never gets anachronistic for me. <br /><br />Modern books of people in period dress are far more likely to be wallbangers for me than these "contemps" that reflect the tenor of society, culture, and romance novels of their times.Keira Soleorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14440213826734580889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34763566.post-60977269998601451922009-12-22T09:39:39.235-08:002009-12-22T09:39:39.235-08:00Anne Weale (The Lonely Shore)

That's old. (I'm old. *sigh*) In light of recent concerns in Romlandia about feminism, realistic depictions of sexuality, and the like, these books are dinosaurs. Read them with an open mind, otherwise they'll all be hitting the walls before too long.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34763566.post-71840445629407355302009-12-22T04:21:58.141-08:002009-12-22T04:21:58.141-08:00This is great Keira.
