Hello and welcome to Storytime for grownups. I'm Faith Moore, and this is Summer Session.

During season one, we read Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte. From now until September, we'll be

exploring Jane Eyre in once-a-week episodes, which will drop on Mondays, sort of like a college

class, only fun. If this doesn't sound like your thing,

don't worry. Storytime will be back with a new book in September. But for now,

brew a pot of tea an episode, you guys,

and I cannot wait to hear what you think about it when it's done.

So I hope that you'll write into me after this episode and give me all your thoughts, all your juicy reactions to what I have to say today, because we're going to go on a wild ride, you guys.

But before we do that, a couple of housekeeping things.

One is a reminder that the episode on August 26th is going to be an Ask Me Anything episode.

And I'm collecting questions now for that episode because I'm going to need to get them in before

the episode so that I know what they are and I can start to think about answering them. So if you would like to have a question

or many questions answered on that episode, all you need to do is scroll down into the show notes

and there's a link to a form where you can submit your questions. I'm not collecting anybody's

personal information. You won't get sent emails. I'm not collecting your emails. All I'm doing is collecting your questions. I'm not collecting anybody's personal information. You won't get sent

emails. I'm not collecting your emails. All I'm doing is collecting your questions. And you can even

be anonymous if you don't want me to say your name on the show. So feel free to check that out.

And it's got some suggestions there about the kinds of questions that you can ask. But you can

literally ask me anything. It doesn't have to be about Jane Eyre, although it can be, and it doesn't have to be about

books in general, although it can be. So please check that link out. I would love to get as many

questions as possible so that we can have a great show on the 26th. Also, Mark Calenders,

the next book will be revealed in a trailer that is going to
