Yup, I think those are the ones!
I'm reminded that it's been a long time since I last read them...
The words in the books are the same, the people who read them change....
[Just thinking that people have different reactions to the same book, at
different times in their lives... I haven't reread the Heyers because the
ones I have are buried out of accessibility and haven't gone looking for
them or gone looking otherwise to reread them]
