• If you’ve never read Anne Brontë, please take a listen to CraftLit’s “The Tenant of Wildfell Hall” (starts with episode 516—https://bit.ly/craftlit-tenant). She’s the most shocking, most modern, and arguably the best of the Brontë writers. You likely missed her b/c Charlotte didn’t like this book’s ‘sensibilities’ and did what she could to ghost it after Anne’s death. Bad Charlotte!
