I just discovered this blog and it looks like such a fun place to be! I cut my reading teeth on the books by the great Georgette Heyer and to this day, I still love every single title she has written.

It's a shame that the majority of UK publishers don't seem to respond to the needs of readers and the amount of historical romances on our shelves(I live in Malta where bookshops import books from the UK) are few and far between save for Mills and Boon Historical Romance and a couple of others. I'd love to see more books on our shelves written by British authors.

The Historical Romance is a thriving genre in the US, however, although there are some great writers, I do find that many is the time the so-called British characters sound American which does annoy me.

I look forward to reading more posts from this blog!

Love,
Julie Bonello

I love Georgette Heyer, too. We all do! We'll be talking about her books from time to time on the blog, so I hope you come again.

I'm delighted you've all decided to start this blog, but are you going to ask more authors to join you? Maybe I'm just being greedy, but I can think of a few UK historical romance writers who aren't on here yet, and I'd like to see them too.
