What is project Gutenberg?

A new Group Reads option picked from the Project Gutenberg catalog. I'll put up the discussion thread as soon as GRs lets me and you'll be able to find links to download the book if that's your choice for the Group Read.

It's a volunteer project to digitize works that are out of copyright into ebooks.

Sorry, I was typing at the same time and didn't see Kristina Simon's response. Mine was more general.
The Tenant of Wildfell Hall is the Project Gutenberg edition.

It's just a coincidence that there are two Project Gutenberg books in the upcoming season but it should make life easier for people who may be having access problems due to potential or ongoing shut downs.

You do not have to read the Project Gutenberg edition. As always, you may read any form of the book(s) (print, audio, or eBook). Link to the edition you read when you post.
