Hey yeah! This book I'm reading has a piece of red and white checkered cloth glued in at the ends of the binding, to imitate the look of the sewing! Yours looks so much better .... and I'd love to read that book! Did you blend Darcy and Valentino, or do they play separate characters? Does Valentino enter the scene with his fiery presence and threaten the peaceful bliss at Pemberley? You SO have to visit that house someday!

"Pemberley is played by the stunning Chatsworth House in Derbyshire, the county in which Mr. Darcy is, of course, said to live. Chatsworth House is the most visited stately home in the UK and has been repeatedly voted its most popular. It is at least a three hour drive from London, but contains an impressive art collection and is located in stunning countryside bordering England’s Peak District. It is therefore surely worth the journey for overseas Pride and Prejudice visitors to the UK. The main block of the house was built between 1687 and 1707, but a house has existed on the site since the 1550s. Various sources believe that Jane Austen had Chatsworth in mind when she conceived of the Pemberley estate."
