Welcome to Litsy!

By far, this is the book that has sucked me in the fastest in the series. I really enjoy Jane and Lord Harold‘s partnership, too. It‘s my favourite part of the series. This did drag a little in the last third but resolved nicely.

Book 1/4 for #JoysofJune

I‘m using this as my #TBRTarot for February- A book with a yellow cover. I did actually read it back then and am only posting now. 😅

This is also LONG overdue for the #JaneandtheExcellentReadAlong ! 😳 I quite enjoyed it. Surely the obsequious Mr. Cooper is meant to have inspired Mr. Collins in P&P! 😆 Answers to prompts are in the comments.

Jane Austen is enjoying August, 1806, among Derbyshire's craggy peaks, sparkling streams, and cavernous gorges. That is, until she discovers the corpse of a young gentleman whose blond curls and delicate features suggest the face of an angel

early because I've got a lot on tomorrow.

1️⃣ Invitation to Chatsworth
2️⃣“My good fellow—if you do not leave off that dreadful noise at once, I shall be forced to call you out; and though it has been my habit, in affairs of honour, never to aim for the heart—in your case, my dear sir, I should be sorely tempted.”
3️⃣ Cassandra with the Chamberpot ⬇️

I just love this advise from the Stillroom Book; early doctoring at its best! “Where‘s the beef?” 🐄🥩

Having breakfast at Panera. My sister is meeting me. We will visit while my husband is having a stent put in his artery. She is a nurse practitioner & the family medical advocate! #sistersarethebest #janeandtheexcellentreadalong

" I intimate of Chatsworth—and of the heathen Whigs it harboured! Whatever would Cassandra say?"

I finished my 3 books as planned. The tagged book is my favorite of the series so far. The character development was spot on and the dialogue really brought it to life. #SeriesLove2023. I enjoyed The Corner that Held Them but it was a bit too long for my tastes. #NunLitQuarterly

Just started The Book of Goose and The Winter Ghosts for #LMPBC and hope to get to MPP next.

#Pemberlittens I've been missing #JaneandtheExcellentReadalong!
Jane & the Stillroom Maid is a favorite of mine because of Chatsworth setting.

Plan is to squeeze Book 6 & 7 into Jan/Feb w/ Discussion posts up on Feb 14th & 28th.

March will have us back on track to finish rereading series before Oct 2023 Release of Jane & the Winchester Schoolboy.

As always this is Read at Your Own Pace. So jump into Discussion whenever you want. 🎩

This week our home of 23 years was lost to a fire. Fire inspector determined it started in the Attic. Squirrel or rat probably chewed a wire in half causing. Both my husband and I are fine. Stay with nephew. Insurance claim is already in the works. House is a total loss. We are managing to recover some things. But this is my Library. Needless to say #PemberLittens
#JaneandtheExcellentReadalong is on hold for awhile.

Originally read couple of years after getting home from 🇬🇧, made me want to read whole series in order. I've enjoyed rereading because Jane goes to Chatsworth. It's had me reminiscing about my visit there.

And we are off to Chatsworth!
Couple of years ago I picked up a used Mass Market copy right before a trip to UK. I remembered reading & enjoying 1st Jane Austen Mystery & Chatsworth was on my Must See Jane Austen Sites List. Ended up being one of the last Mass Markets I ever bought. Print is just to small. So I bought Audible copy.Very much looking forward to rereading the book that inspired #janeandtheyear2020. 📚

I so love these!!!

Had planned to read this before our trip to England. Glad that I didn't get to it. Now that I have seen Chatsworth I could picture it in my mind. I had read 1st in this series ages ago. This one made me want to go back and read the rest. For #austeninaugust this year? Also want to read more about history of Chatsworth and it's people. What did it look like in Jane Austen's day?

#TBRtemptation post 11! This is the 5th installment in the Jane Austen Mysteries series. This sleuthing adventure sheds new light on Jane Austen's travels of 1806. Near Bakewell, Jane discovers a young man's mutilated body. Turns out, it's a woman in man's clothes. She was a servant accused of witchcraft. Rumors of ritual murders by the local FreeMasons--the justice of the peace being one--complicates the investigation. #blameLitsy #blameMrBook 😎
