Welcome to Reading Revisited, a place for friends to enjoy some good old-fashioned book chat while revisiting the truth, beauty, and goodness we’ve found in our favorite books.

We have a Christmas Discount on Paid Subscriptions. This gets you $2-3 off each month(depending if you do a monthly or yearly subscription). That price will last as long as you keep subscribing (it will never randomly go up, I promise)! So if you've been on the fence, between now and January 6th might be the best time to subscribe!

Hello, Readers!

Today we are dropping a special “bonus” episode for you all - this is one of two bonus episodes coming out this week for our first Reading Revisited Book Swap. Today we’re sharing the conversation Kelsie and I had about The House of Mirth by Edith Wharton. As a long-time fan of Wharton, it was fun to share this delightful book with Kelsie Hartley for the first time and chat through her first impressions.

This episode is SPOILER FREE until midway through. I promise we give a very clear warning before the spoilers start!
