The Absentee | 
🏡🏡🏡Estates!
This book is about Irish landowners, living in London, being absent from their estates, & not being able to properly care for their tenants. But one son is going to change all that. This book actually reminded me a bit of Jane Austen. A little romance, some jabs at society... #150PnPCoverParty

LeahBergen I‘ve always wanted to read her! She‘s been called “the Irish Jane Austen” (and was admired by Austen, too). 👍🏻 6y
AshleyHoss820 @CrowCAH It‘s a lovely story! And the cover just transports you there! @LeahBergen I‘ve heard that too! It was very Austen-esque! Elizabeth Gaskell also drew inspiration from Austen! This was my first Edgeworth and I really enjoyed it! It was a fairly quick read, too! 😊 6y
