An Updated Reading Schedule for 2021!

Detailed schedules for Rebecca and Jane Eyre as well as the book order for the year

Good afternoon everyone and happy Friday!

It’s been too long coming, but finally, FINALLY here is a more complete schedule for 2021’s episodes. You will note that each week is laid out through Jane Eyre but not after that. The order of the books is locked in, but we will share the specific passages to be read each week as we get closer to the other books. This will allow us the flexibility that is sometimes necessary to do a book justice (or have a week of should someone get sick).

First, here is the official order:

1. Rebecca by Daphne Du Maurier

2. Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte (feat. Karen Swallow Prior)

3. All the Pretty Horses by Cormac McCarthy

4. Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston

5. The Book of the Dun Cow by Walter Wangerin

6. A Gathering of Old Men by Ernest Gainse

7. A Confederacy of Dunces by John Kennedy Toole

8. Loving by Henry Green

9. The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain (if time permits)
