The book is excellently written and I enjoyed it very much.  Although there were a few moments that I didn't like and I was shaking my head over them.

It's a classic for a reason. It took me a second to get into the book, but it wasn't long before I, a generally nonromantic person, was giggling at a brief hand hold. Well-written.

I am giving the 4 star based on the plot , character development and language.

 But for me it was too long. Like u can answer a question by saying "yes" but  miss jane Eyre don't intend to do so, she only gives short answers when she want to piss off that Rochester guy. That was annoying so it took me 3 whole months to finish this thing.

Apart from that the story got interesting from the middle. I like it.
