I didn't like the narrator, and so much shit happens to Jane... I wasn't in the right space for that.

“I am no bird; and no net ensnares me: I am a free human being with an independent will.”

I want to write a full review one day, but for now I just want to say I never expected to enjoy this book as much as I did. It’s not only a stunning 19th century romance, but it deals with conversations of misogyny, disability, and the human spirit to just name a few. I found myself cheering for Jane Eyre endlessly, and I’ll forever love this woman who is unapologetically herself. If you aren’t a fan of classics, I do recommend maybe listening to this on on audiobook. It’s more modern than most, and I’ll never stop singing it praises.

Also, if you’re looking for a mess of a man, look no further than Edward Rochester. Jane’s the one in charge- haha.
