Sorcery and Cecelia, or, The Enchanted Chocolate Pot (1988)

1. 152
   Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell de Susanna Clarke (fyrefly98, ThatArtGirl)

   fyrefly98: Both have the same "Jane-Austen-meets-Harry-Potter" vibe to them; "Jonathan Strange" is denser and more grown-up, while "Sorcery & Cecelia" is funnier and more of a romp.

   Mairelon the Magician de Patricia C. Wrede (infiniteletters)

   Magician's Ward de Patricia C. Wrede (amberwitch)
4. 82
   Shades of Milk and Honey de Mary Robinette Kowal (trollsdotter)
5. 50
   Sorcerer to the Crown de Zen Cho (sandstone78, Jean_Sexton)

   Jean_Sexton: Both take place in a Regency England where magic works.

   To Say Nothing of the Dog de Connie Willis (Pagemistress)

   Flora Segunda: Being the Magickal Mishaps of a Girl of Spirit, Her Glass-Gazing Sidekick, Two Ominous Butlers (One Blue), a House with Eleven Thousand Rooms, and a Red Dog de Ysabeau S. Wilce (foggidawn)

   Arabella de Georgette Heyer (allisongryski)

   allisongryski: Let me preface this recommendation by acknowledging that Arabella does not have the fantasy element of Sorcery & Cecilia. However, I think many readers of S & C will enjoy this excellently written Regency story, following the impetuous, charming Arabella when she goes to London for the Season. There is some light romance, similar in tone to that in S & C, but the story is more focused on the characters and the humour in their interactions and misadventures.… (mais)

   Kat, Incorrigible de Stephanie Burgis (keristars)

   keristars: These are somewhat similar - a Regency-era girl discovers that she has magic ability by accident and then gets into a bit of an adventure as a result. S&C is more of a mystery/romance/adventure while Kat is a do-gooder Emma type. In my biased opinion, the Burgis book is far and away the better of the two, but if you liked one, you're likely to enjoy the other.… (mais)

    Freedom and Necessity de Steven Brust (puddleshark)
11. 20
    Newt's Emerald de Garth Nix (rarm, Heather39)

    rarm: Sorcery and Cecelia was the first Regency-set fantasy I read, and still my favorite. Of the ones I've read since then, Newt's Emerald resembles it most, perhaps because they both draw on Heyer as much as Austen.

    Heather39: Another light young adult fantasy rendition of a Regency romance. Thoroughly delightful and fun.

12. 42
    The Magicians and Mrs. Quent de Galen Beckett (Usuário anônimo, MyriadBooks)

    MyriadBooks: For commonplace magic and properly brought-up young Englishwomen.

13. 10
    Bewitching Season de Marissa Doyle (Caramellunacy)

    Caramellunacy: A similar fun historical fantasy feel. Bewitching Season has twins Persephone & Penelope Leland using their (secret) magical skills to protect the teenaged princess Victoria from a dastardly magical plot.

14. 10
    Daddy-Long-Legs de Jean Webster (wordcauldron)

    wordcauldron: Same epistolary style and similarly entertaining

15. 00
    The Chocolatier's Wife de Cindy Lynn Speer (MyriadBooks)

    MyriadBooks: For fans of epistolary elements.

16. 00
    The Case of the Missing Marquess de Nancy Springer (cransell)
17. 00
    Star Well de Alexei Panshin (joiedelivre)

    joiedelivre: Another fantasy of manners, but set in an interplanetary milieu.

18. 00
    Silver in the Blood de Jessica Day George (carlyrose)
19. 00
    Dark Mirror de M.J. Putney (foggidawn)

    Snowspelled de Stephanie Burgis (Usuário anônimo)

    Usuário anônimo: Both light fantasy comedies-of-manners, combining Heyer-world with magical colleges
