I've lost count of how many times I've read Jane Eyre at this point, but it's probably been a good 7 year at least since my last re-read. It remains one of my favourite books of all time (and has remained so regardless of the dissection it was subjected to at school and Uni), though admittedly I felt much ick-ier about Jane and Mr Rochester's relationship this time around.

Couldn't finish it this time. It irritates me to no end. Ugh.

The ending felt rushed. I enjoyed the many plot twists throughout the story. The gothic setting and plot of the novel intrigued me. I predicted a sorrowful ending; but to my surprise I was contradicted.

Very well written and engaging. That being said, I hate Mr. Rochester with a BURNING passion, I literally can't stand him. If he wasn't framed as a good guy I would have enjoyed this book.
