I loved this podcast! I’ve listened to the P&P season so far (minus the special episodes) but I’ve always wanted to read Jane Eyre and will use this as a companion piece. It’s such a chill listen and it’s really interesting insight into the context of the time period and what kind of influences Jane Austen may have had.
