The Gilded Age: a tale of to-day, volume two | Mark Twain

Season three, over?
Say it isn‘t so! Rehab time —
withdrawals imminent.

Well somehow, season 3 of The Gilded Age is over. It was so good! Now we gotta wait 2 years for season 4. 😭

JenlovesJT47 @dabbe you will love it!! Goes perfectly with Age of Innocence. ♥️ 1mo

dabbe @JenlovesJT47 If only Daniel Day-Lewis were in it! 😍 1mo

CindyMyLifeIsLit Hmmm! We just started season one, so I‘m definitely going to take my time! 😂 1mo

JenlovesJT47 @dabbe Railroad Daddy is an excellent substitute!! 😍🥵 1mo

JenlovesJT47 @CindyMyLifeIsLit it‘ll be hard to go slowly, it‘s so addictive! 1mo

rubyslippersreads I‘m happy that Gladys appears to be heading for a happier life than her real-life counterpart. 1mo

JenlovesJT47 @rubyslippersreads me too!! Seems very similar to Cora & Robert on Downton Abbey — I am pleasantly surprised! 🤓 1mo

Wednesday? Drat! It should
be Sunday! Railroad Daddy
is calling my name.

I‘m finally all caught up on The Gilded Age & am currently having withdrawals. Sunday can‘t get here fast enough!! 😋😍

Jari-chan Oh, it's Wednesday? I thought it was Thursday already 🙈😅 thanks for the reminder 🤣 2mo

CBee @Jari-chan you sound like me 😂😂 I had a little chat in my head earlier about what day it is today 😂🤪 2mo

lil1inblue I really need to catch up, too! I need some #railroaddaddy time! 😍 😋 2mo

JenlovesJT47 @Jari-chan @CBee 😅 all the days run together! Can‘t believe it‘s only Wednesday! 😵‍💫 2mo

JenlovesJT47 @lil1inblue the last few episodes have been some high stakes drama! So good, I‘m addicted ♥️🤗 2mo

dabbe Your words remind me how much I love reading books about and during this error. Edith Wharton is my fave. 🩶🖤🩶 2mo

JenlovesJT47 @dabbe I have never read any of Edith Wharton‘s books although I have a bunch of them. Which one would you recommend reading first? 2mo

dabbe @JenlovesJT47 Without a doubt, THE AGE OF INNOCENCE. The #hashtagbrigade is reading this next month, if you're interested. I'm happily rereading it because it's in my top 5 of all time. We only read a chapter a day. Here's the link for more info: https://www.litsy.com/web/post/2885440

P.S. The Martin Scorcese movie starring Daniel Day-Lewis, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Winona Ryder is exquisite as well. 🩵💙🩵 2mo

JenlovesJT47 @dabbe ooh yay, I can do a chapter a day! I‘ve been stressing about being behind on all of the buddy reads but that‘s doable. I‘ve already got the book. Thank you! 🤗 2mo

dabbe @JenlovesJT47 🩵💙🩵 2mo

PSA: if you like period pieces and you haven‘t seen it yet, you MUST watch The Gilded Age on HBO. The costumes are fabulous & the cast is excellent. Mr. George Russell here (Morgan Spector) has been dubbed Railroad Daddy by the fans & it is very fitting!! 🥵😏😆 Lort, that man. 🥵🥵🥵😋

The union may call him
Robber Barron — but we call
him Railroad Daddy. 😉

AnnCrystal Just went and read about this show, looks like a catching soap opera 👏🏼🐝👌🏼🎬🐝💝. 2mo

JenlovesJT47 @AnnCrystal it‘s addictive! Season 3 just came out so I‘m doing a rewatch and loving it even more the second time around! ♥️ 2mo

AnnCrystal @JenlovesJT47 that show does look addictive worthy. You mentioned that you live in New York?? It must be wild to see any historical movie based in your city. I know I love it when Los Angeles is featured ☺️👌🏼🎬💝. 2mo

JenlovesJT47 @AnnCrystal I live in central Florida, close to Disney. I did post yesterday about NYC but I‘ve never been there — although I feel like I‘ve been there a thousand times in books and movies ☺️ I would LOVE to see a historical show set in this area. The closest I‘ve got is Dexter & The Golden Girls 😁 And L.A. is a great city! I lived about an hour away from LAX for 2 years in college. Got to see a couple of Dodgers games. Cali is beautiful. ♥️ 2mo

AnnCrystal @JenlovesJT47 🆒 movies and books allows is to venture anywhere ☺️👌🏼💝💝💝. 2mo

Amiable @JenlovesJT47 @AnnCrystal The Gilded Age is so good! I‘m also a fan. Did you know that large parts of it are filmed at the mansions in Newport, RI? 2mo

JenlovesJT47 @Amiable the scenery is stunning and the costumes are 🤌🏻. Mrs. Russell‘s dresses are 😍😍😍 — well, all of them really, but hers are the best! ♥️ 2mo

Amiable @JenlovesJT47 I do love George Russell, too. That man can buy a copper mine from me anytime. 😄 (edited) 2mo

Librarybelle Love this show! 2mo

TheBookHippie I adore that show. And OMG George Russell 🔥🔥🔥 2mo

AmyG Love this show. The costumes, the scenery, the drama! Excellent. 2mo

rubyslippersreads But Bertha! 😳 I‘m currently reading

Consuelo and Alva Vanderbilt: The Story of a Daughter and a Mother in the Gilded Age

JenlovesJT47 @rubyslippersreads ooh this looks good! Stacked! 2mo

AnnCrystal @Amiable 🆒🤩 those Newport, RI mansions must be pretty ☺️👌🏼🎬💝. 2mo

Amiable @AnnCrystal Oh, they are gorgeous! Especially when they‘re all decked out for the holidays. 2mo

AnnCrystal @Amiable 🤩 my favorite! I love seeing the holidays celebrated on my favorite shows. I bet seeing those mansions all decked out is a feast for the eyes 🥳📺💖💖💖. 2mo

dabbe A historical haiku! I love this time period, and now I want to read Edith Wharton again. 🖤🐝💛 2mo

lil1inblue Railroad daddy... I hadn't heard that before, but damn it fits! 🔥 🔥 🔥 2mo

julieclair Ooohhhh…. I haven‘t seen The Gilded Age, but I can tell I will love it!!! 😀 A few posts back, you asked about our favorite time periods to live in, and I think the gilded age would be mine. ⭐️ 2mo

JenlovesJT47 @julieclair it‘s so good!! I decided to do a rewatch so I haven‘t watched the two newest episodes yet and I keep dodging spoilers right and left. 😆 it‘s a great show! ♥️♥️♥️ 2mo

The Gilded Age: a tale of to-day, volume two | Mark Twain

I'm cheating on real books. First time reading on a kindle and it freezes. Real books don't freeze. But alas, I am in a bind because I need to read a Mark Twain Biography before heading to the Mark Twain archives.
