    Dec 23 2024

    Welcome to the Storytime for Grownups Christmas Spectacular! For the month of December, we'll be reading Charles Dickens's A Christmas Carol, chapter by chapter, with a few notes along the way--like an audio book with built in notes.

    Today we wrap up our discussion of A Christmas Carol. Join us on January 2nd, when we'll begin our next book: The Woman in White by Wilkie Collins. So brew a pot of tea (or a mug of hot chocolate), find a cozy chair, and settle in. It's storytime!

  • Introducing: Storytime for Grownups Season 3!
    Dec 21 2024

    Storytime for Grown-Ups is a podcast that will help you learn to love classic literature. Whether we choose to admit it or not, many of us find the great books of the past inaccessible. The language is dense, the vocabulary is unfamiliar, and the characters seem old-fashioned. Too often, these books are thrown aside as boring or too difficult even if their plots intrigued us to begin with. But these books are classics for a reason—we just need a way in.

    Each season of Storytime for Grown-Ups, host Faith Moore will read a book aloud: one chapter per episode. As she reads, she’ll pause from time to time to give brief explanations that will make it easier to follow along. Like an audio book with built-in notes. And the more you listen, the easier the language will seem.

    So brew a pot of tea, find a cozy chair, and settle in. It’s storytime.

    Season 3 of Storytime for Grownups premieres Thursday January 2nd 2025, with new episodes dropping every Monday and Thursday.

Faith is an empathetic, patient teacher!

Faith understands and isn't snobby about those of us that find it hard to read the classics. Her notes are so helpful. I am sharing this with all three of my Gen Z daughters so we can enjoy it together. Can't wait for the next episode!

Excellent podcast! I’m hooked!

great book choice. I love the “notes” I wish I had similar notes when I read the Devine Comedy…
