Our Annual read for 2023 will be Clarissa, or, the History of a Young Lady which I have at 1534 pages, that leaves Joseph and His Brothers for 2024.

Jamie Barringer (Ravenmount) (ravenmount) | 555 comments Since Clarissa is on Project Gutenburg, I may actually finish the annual read for 2023. :)

Daisey | 332 comments I have joined a readalong on Litsy to go along with Clarissa as well. Our goal is to read in "real time" so that each letter is read as it is dated, and apparently the days of the week should match as well in 2023. I thought it might be worth mentioning here as well in case anyone else wants to consider using that schedule.

Thank you for this Daisey! I'm new to Litsy but was able to follow this read, should make this doable!
