Jane Eyre

Love the story and the movie, but the book was tiresome.

Very ahead of it’s time and I enjoyed how it wasn’t just a love story but built on Jane as her own individual character outside of the romance

A stake through the heart

I could not get into this book which made me really sad as I was really hoping to enjoy this book. I think maybe I just wasn’t feeling it that much and I might try rereading it another time.
