If you want to escape lockdown completely, then I recommend any novel by Georgette Heyer, or indeed, all her novels. They are absolutely delicious tales of Regency heroes, winsome heroines, fops, dandies, dastardly baddies and lots of sumptuous descriptions of silk-lined bonnets, cravats and breeches. Utter, immersive escapism. Try starting off with Frederica.
SOPHIE KINSELLA, Hello! magazine
My favourite historical novelist -- stylish, romantic, sharp, and witty. Her sense of period is superb, her heroines are enterprising, and her heroes dashing. I owe her many happy hours
Margaret Drabble
Wonderful characters, elegant, witty writing, perfect period detail, and rapturously romantic
Katie Fforde
A writer of great wit and style
Daily Telegraph
Triumphantly good
