I just think that Charlotte Bronte is not the author for me. That is all I am really going to say because the main character just felt like an asshole and there were some certain scenes with male teachers and students that made me feel icky.

Although I didn't enjoy this book as much as Jane Eyre, it wasn't bad. This is definitely a first novel (published after her death). I am glad I read it. I liked that it was set in Brussels.

I love the raw energy and hidden innocence of this novel. The prose is more elegant than I expected. The characters are somewhat more crisply drawn than Brontë's later novels. In its innocence, there is quite a lot of innocent humor like the question of a window overlooking a school of girls. Pure innocence for sure. And I get it... Brontë became much better, but in truth, here she was already quite good.
