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 ⬇️
Crinoline_Laphroaig 4️⃣ The End. Last time I read this was for #JaneAndTheYear2020 and I had forgotten. This is normal for me. I remember character storylines but the killer I forget. Which is nice because reveal is a surprise.
5️⃣ Stillroom Maid Recipes. I really enjoyed them tucked into story.
6️⃣ Eat nothing but that doesn't mean I can't have Whisky becore bed. Plus if I have a good night's sleep I feel like I can do anything. ⬇️

Crinoline_Laphroaig 7️⃣ Having had mother who sounded a lot like Mrs Austen I am really good at tuning that out. Really loud music or in this case singing gets on my nerves after awhile.
8️⃣ Picnic in the garden. While enjoyed see the house when we visited Chatsworth, I loved the gardens.
9️⃣ This is one of my favorites in the Series because of having been to Chatsworth I can just see those scenes in my mind. 2mo

Crinoline_Laphroaig I really wish you could edit comments on Litsy cause I just saw typo ^Whisky before bed. 🤦🏻♀️ 2mo
suvata @Crinoline_Laphroaig Please add me to your list. I am just beginning Stillroom Maid but I‘m a fast reader and I‘ll catch up. 2mo
Crinoline_Laphroaig @suvata will do! It's read at your own pace so pop back whenever and join in wth discussion Questions. 2mo
suvata 1. Standout moments: Finding out that the wounds were inflicted after death.
2. Favorite quote: “It is far more comfortable to throw the guilt upon mysteries one cannot understand, than upon a human being disturbingly like oneself.”
3. Favorite character: Jane, of course.
4. Anything surprised you: It surprised me in the very beginning, when the dead person turned out to be a woman dressed in men‘s clothing. 2mo

suvata 5. Something you learned about Jane or her time: The excessive use of opioids is always a shocker when I read books from this period. Really? They gave laudanum to children.
6. Would You Rather: Eat the tart made of veggies, eggs, and brains and have courage to do anything you wanted or eat nothing after 3pm and sleep soundly: I will sleep soundly. No brains for me! 2mo

suvata 7. Listen to Mr Cooper's off key singing or Mrs Austen's complaints: Both would be intolerable, but I guess it would be easier to ignore Mrs. Austen‘s complaints.
8. Be the Guest of Honour at a Chatsworth dinner party or spend the day in the gardens with a picnic lunch: Picnic in the garden, please. 2mo

suvata 9. Any other random thoughts: I forgot how good these books are. I read the first four quite a while ago, and I‘m just now catching up on the rest of them.

2️⃣ As a #Janeite I know Jane's life story. Had she married we would probably have never gotten her books. But still I want her and Lord Harold to have secretly wed, continuing to solve mysteries, and Jane still having time to writing books. One can dream.

4️⃣ Really liked brother Frank in this one. He's again added another word to my vocabulary - havey- cavey. 4w
"The moon is high; and when the lady in question is Miss Austen, it does not signify how long I wait.”
“Promise me . . . you will write. Heroine—”
6️⃣ Maria Fitzherbert. Plus I fell down a Google rabbit hole of the history of Itchen ferry. 4w

*Glad doubled up #janeandtheprisonerofwoolhouse and Ghosts of Netley since both are set in Southampton and have Naval storylines. After this we are off to @janeaustenshouse in Chawton. 4w
