Despite living thirty miles from London, Anabelle Latimer knows her chances of finding a husband in their sleepy village are as thin as cook's white soup. Then she discovers a kindred spirit in Mr. Fielding, the intelligent and handsome new steward from Blackwood Hall. It was a great shame that his position in life was so below her own, for he was exactly the sort of man she would have wished to marry. Anthony Fielding, tired of being the target of the ton's marriage-minded mothers, hopes to spend a relaxing week shooting and fishing in the country. Yet upon his arrival at Blackwood Hall he discovers an estate in chaos, and a friend in desperate need of help. He is quick to offer his knowledge and expertise, unaware that his generosity will have unexpected repercussions. The Steward of Blackwell Hall is a traditional Regency romance of approximately 66,000 words.

A guide to Regency England for readers of classic literature or historical fiction set in the early 19th century. England, as it was in the early 1800's, can sometimes be as confusing to a modern reader as travelling to a foreign country. Their clothes, manners, methods of transport, money and even some words they used can be unfamiliar to us today. I hope this book will grow into a helpful source of reference for any reader who is exploring the classic authors, like Jane Austen and Maria Edgeworth, or enjoying the wide range of early 19th century set historical stories found here at Wattpad.

Tess of the d'Urbervilles: A Pure Woman Faithfully Presented is a novel by Thomas Hardy. It initially appeared in a censored and serialised version, published by the British illustrated newspaper The Graphic in 1891 and in book form in 1892. Though now considered a major nineteenth-century English novel and possibly Hardy's fictional masterpiece, Tess of the d'Urbervilles received mixed reviews when it first appeared, in part because it challenged the sexual morals of late Victorian England.

The Tragedy of Julius Caesar (First Folio title: The Tragedie of Iulius Cæsar) is a history play and tragedy by William Shakespeare, believed to have been written in 1599. It is one of several plays written by Shakespeare based on true events from Roman history, which also include Coriolanus and Antony and Cleopatra. Although the play is named Julius Caesar, Brutus speaks more than four times as many lines as the title character; and the central psychological drama of the play focuses on Brutus' struggle between the conflicting demands of honour, patriotism, and friendship.

Katanya, aku genius dan hidupku kelewat serius. Padahal aku tidak merasa seperti itu. Oke, aku memang pernah menggelar pentas tunggal dari drama Shakespeare yang semua dialognya kuubah sendiri jadi bahasa Jawa waktu aku kelas lima SD. Waktu kelas empat SD, aku selesai menghafal seluruh isi KBBI. Aku bisa berbicara dalam bahasa Sansekerta dan memahami isi prasasti semudah orang-orang memahami isi majalah. Koleksi piala dan medali olimpiadeku (baik akademik maupun non-akademik) mungkin lebih banyak dari jumlah perempuan yang dilirik Zeus. Aku masih kelas sepuluh, tapi aku sudah iseng-iseng ikut beberapa TO SBMPTN, dan dapat nilai paling tinggi di antara anak-anak kelas dua belas. Dan banyak hal lainnya. Tapi menurutku, masih banyak hal yang belum kulakukan. Dan aku selalu merasa tidak puas kalau belum mencoba hal baru. Aku selalu penasaran. Namun, tidak pernah terpikirkan olehku, bahwa suatu hari, akan ada seseorang yang berkata bahwa aku harus mencoba jadi cewek normal. Jangan terlalu serius. Katanya, jadi remaja normal itu asyik. Nah, sudah kubilang kan, aku selalu penasaran? --- #10 in Teen Fiction [23/07/16] [cover by me + prohngs lol]
