Thank you!!!!!!!!! The Weekender is exactly what I’ve always wanted! A well curated collection of vetted and interesting posts across genres. (Like NYT’s Weekender used to be!) So happy about this change.
I enjoyed the new format. I liked the previous formula sometimes, but this seemed a bit more balanced and accessible. And I think the title is a better fit.
This is fantastic. The format makes reading easy, fast, and fun.
I’m going to humbly drop as a recommendation for a future edition my post about how a volcanic eruption in 1815 led to the creation of Mary Shelley’s “Frankenstein” and the bicycle. https://www.readcontra.com/p/the-year-without-a-summer

Having Substack take back control of the weekly Substack Reads digest has been something I have advocated for a while now. This is great!

Yes!
Hannah and the Substack team, so glad to have you back for Substack Reads. It's so good when you do it.
Excited to see more new faces spotlighted! People we haven't seen yet.
This new format looks SO GOOD
Great roundup!
Thank you for featuring my poem!
Wonderful, Wendy!
Ah, well spotted. It used to be in the poetry foundation website, but no longer there. Thanks for finding it.
Great to see so many cool Substacks featured in the Sally Rooney discourse!
Please allow creators to decide whatever they want to charge for subscriptions. Minimum prices make things worse, not better.
I ain’t spending $8 or even $5 a month on anyone on Substack, given the amount of free reasonably high quality content out there.
But there are 10 or 20 on Substack now that I’d gladly pay $1/month for.

Well said! I really liked the new layout and coverage, too. :)
I love this! It's fun to see so much visual culture in a Substack roundup. Cool, too, to see FlakPhoto in the mix. Thanks for the shout! 👋📸✨
