Hello and welcome to Story Time for Grownups. I'm Faith Moore, and this season we're reading

The Woman in White by Wilkie Collins. Each episode, I'll read a few chapters 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's last time.

I am so happy that you have now read this chapter two and the responses are

pouring in. I got so many emails this time, which is exactly what I hoped was going to happen.

I thought to myself, if I don't get a million, what the heck emails, then I'm not doing this podcast right well it wasn't exactly a

million but there were so many and you guys you guys never disappoint you sent me amazing letters

because this chapter I guess it was a couple of chapters these chapters they're my favorite

it's not that the story doesn't get better from

here, it does. But that moment with Marion on the roof and ending with Fosco writing in the diary,

that moment just, for me, it just blows the lid off the story and suddenly we're in a whole

different ballgame. And I'm want to talk a lot about that

in the question section today. But I just wanted to tell you, I've been waiting and waiting,

and finally here we are, and you guys did not disappoint. I love reading these books with you. It's

the most amazing thing to feel like you're all out there. You're all anxiously

waiting to know what's going to happen. And I get to be a part of that. So thank you. Thank you for

being a part of Storytime for grownups. It truly is such a joy to do this podcast. And it is

nothing without you. And this time, it just felt even more like we are all in this together.

And I really appreciate that. I'm going to do my best in the comment section, the question
