The next book posted from this account will be Edith Wharton's Summer.

Per Wikipedia:

Summer is a novel by Edith Wharton, which was published in 1917 by Charles Scribner's Sons. While most novels by Edith Wharton dealt with New York's upper-class society, this is one of two novels by Wharton with rural settings. Its themes include social class, the role of women in society, destructive relationships, sexual awakening and the desire of its protagonist, named Charity Royall. The novel was controversial at the time of its publication and is one of the less famous among her novels because of its subject matter.

This will happen over 37 days, starting tomorrow at 8am US Eastern (1300 UTC).

I created the bot that does this because I was having a hard time setting aside time for reading novels, feeling like I had to make the time "special". But I was happy enough to read articles and long threads that came across my feed. This bot (inspired, too, by the old DailyLit service) is a way to get that reading in where I already am.

It posts around 1,600 words a day, given a 10,000 character limit and trying to honor chapter and section breaks.
