Going to try and read more from my own shelves this year (I'm in the middle of - finally - hanging some pictures, hence the junk in the corner).

Levin and his #estates weren‘t enough for Kitty, at least at first. #catchingup #150PnPCoverParty @CrowCAH @LeahBergen
I‘m enjoying browsing everyone‘s posts for the #150PnPCoverParty while reading Chapters 11-20 of Persuasion to discuss with my mom and niece next week. We‘re slowly rereading Austen‘s works and discussing them. So far, #estates , #money , and #neighbors have all played a big role in this one!

“As they drew near the end of their journey, her impatience for a sight of the abbey ... returned in full force.”

I would love to visit the Russian #estates described in Anna Karenina. I don‘t know what it is, but old Russia seems like a fairy tale to me. Minus the awful societal problems.

Hately Castle, Victoria, BC, Canada. It's used as the X-Mansion for the X films. My whole childhood I wanted so badly to go to Xavier's School for the Gifted Youngsters and learn to be an X-Men.
This castle has also been used as Lex Luther's mansion (Smallville), and the Queen family mansion (Arrow).
This is a lovely book that chronicles the magnificent country estates of a suburban enclave outside of Philadelphia, and my neighborhood (although my home is not an estate, alas!) One of the most famous is Ardrossan because of the owner‘s daughter, Hope Montgomery Scott. She is said to have been the model for the lead character in “A Philadelphia Story”, played in movies by Katherine Hepburn and then by Grace Kelly. #estates #150PnPCoverParty

I have pored over this book for years (with envy in my heart 😆).
