Great read about castle life told in rhyme!

It's no ordinary castle. It has favorites. It rearranges itself. And someone's trying to map it.
If your entertainment tastes run more to smiling, you'll like this one.

Aspirational home library. This could double as my dining room and living room, so unlike William Randolph Hearst, I wouldn't need the other 114 rooms and three cottages, just this room, a couple of bedrooms, a bathroom or two, and a kitchen. Totally reasonable, IMO.

My kids and I were completely sucked into the story on a recent road trip. The castle randomly adds or takes away rooms when it wants. The siblings are creative and supportive of each other. Even though they are defending themselves against a siege and someone trying to steal the crown, it never gets too scary. A wonderful adventure story!

Thanks for the tag @BethM #wondrouswednesday

Twelve-year-old Elizabeth is sent to spend the summer with her distracted, scholarly aunt at a Scottish manor house and finds herself mysteriously able to interact with the 18th-century family who once lived there.

“Time-slip” stories were a huge childhood favourite of mine and this 1975 novel is such a good addition to the genre.

A bit of I Capture The Castle plus some Austen heroines. Our beautiful heroine is determined to marry rich to help save her family's crumbling estate, but her overly forthright tongue keeps frightening away prospects. When a handsome baron and his financially savvy cousin come to town, things are looking up - even if one of them is terribly annoying with his bluntness...
