This book was well paced and had interesting characters.
However I was a little underwhelmed by the storyline and at times I was bored.

The story was ok. Mostly I am giving it 3 stars because of the audiobook. The accents are horrendous. It reminds me that people who are not from the south do not always realize there are more than one “Southern Accent”. The one the narrator does is no where near the lilting tone of the women of Mountain Brook. To add insult to injury, the narrator often mispronounces locations around Birmingham including Center Point and Vestavia.

This is a modern day retelling of Jane Eyre. I like this new, snarky, sticky fingers, Jane. But, it’s easier for me to think of this as a standalone story, not specifically connected to Jane Eyre. I will have to go back and read the original before I can comment on how closely the stories compare. Still, it was an enjoyable book. I just couldn’t get it into my head that I was reading about the same Jane as penned by Brontë. 3.5 stars, rounded to 4
