Hello and welcome to Storytime for grownups.

I'm Faith Moore, and this season we're reading Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte.

Each episode, I'll read one chapter from the book,

pausing from time to time to give brief explanations so it's easier to follow along.

It's like an audiobook with built-in notes.

So brew a pot of tea, find a cozy chair,

and settle in. It to story time for grownups. This is episode 31. I'm so glad to be here with you,

as always. You know, it's funny, I'm actually kind of glad that some people are not following along in real time, that there are

people who are back in other parts of the book, because I'm still getting letters about Mr.

Rochester. And this is good because I miss Mr. Rochester. I don't know about you, but I'm

feeling sad to not be with him anymore. And it's nice for me to get some miscives from the past where people are still

communing with Mr. Rochester. So thank you for those. By the time you catch up, we will have moved on,

but thank you to those of you who are writing to me now about Mr. Rochester. But thank you to

everyone who is writing to me about everything. I'm so glad to receive your letters, and you should keep

them coming. Go to my website, faith kmore.com, and click on contact, or you can follow the link in the show

notes and get in touch, or you can find me on X at Faith Kmore. And if you are on X, please give me

a follow. That actually helps the show show because my posts go out to more people

or something, something, something. I don't really understand how it works, but apparently that is true.

So please do that. And while we're on the topic of things that you might do, if you're so kind,

please make sure you're subscribed to this show. And if you could, if you're enjoying it,

tap those five stars and maybe even leave a review.

Or tell your friends. If you're not on social media, God bless you, that's a wonderful thing.
