I had to read this classic for a college class I’m taking.
I liked this book but I did not like how Jane Eyre was treated the whole time.
And if I were Jane Eyre, I would have heeded Mrs. Fairfax’s advice about Mr. Rochester.

Frankly I prefer her sisters' writings, Anne for her modernism and Emily for her passion and her poetry. Tragic the three should have died so young, how much great literature we missed out on. I tried to read this in a day, I show the attempt on my YouTube channel jane eyre challenge 2020, I failed, I managed to read 2/3 of the novel. I finished it four days after the attempt. It is quite easy to follow for a classic, as it is told in the first person. There is some problematic racism, Charlotte describes Mrs. Reed, a hateful character till the day she dies, as having “dark and opaque” skin. And she writes of John Reed, Jane’s spoiled and entitled male cousin, that “ . . . he called his mother, ‘old girl,’ too; sometimes reviled her for her dark skin, similar to his own . . . ”

Jane Eyre. This was an intriguing read, started of slow paced, but a few surprises along the way, keeps the pace changing, the reader intrigued but interested. A surprising end to say the least.
This character never ceases to surprise, and Bronte writing style helps getting you hooked as the story unfolds. This book does defy its time, and for my first attempt at any work by the Bronte sisters I'm plesently surprised. Really good.
