Review Detail

Reader reviewed by Wonk

Jane Eyre is nothing short of amazing. Not only is the heroine strong-willed and intelligent, but she is also quite average-looking and is easy to relate to by today's young woman.

The plot twist (yes, there actually is a plot!) is fantastic and definately adds even more interest to this classic tale of love, independence, and secrets. Mr. Rochester, though surly and difficult, is very real and, somehow, attractive though we're told repeatedly that he is not a handsome man. The banter between Jane and Rochester is witty and endearing, and Charlotte Bronte has truly lent us a peak into a great, if somewhat flawed, relationship.

Worth the read, and the re-read, and another re-read.
