GOATED book. You basically take the common dark, romantic soup from nowadays -
(you know what I mean, the: "I hate you!" "Say it again.")
- but write it better, with a lady with agency. Moxie.
I mean, it is Regency/Victorian Era so the agency isrich uncle dies and leaves inheritance to her , but still.
Also, Rochester? Smash. Next question. He is lowkey kinda not a great guy.
Also the thing with the preacher cousin is fuckin' weird and there is a portion in the 2/4-3/4th portion that's a bit boring, but good payoff. Necessary.

i decided to reread this book for the first time since middle school and i’m so glad that i did. this was incredible and i absolutely adored the character of jane and resonated with her a lot. i can’t get over charlotte’s prose. my favorite quote that i believe perfectly sums up the novel is, “there is no happiness like that of being loved by your fellow-creatures, and feeling that your presence is an addition to their comfort”

Quality wise it was at least 4 stars, but as far as how I much I actually liked reading it, it was 3.5. Jane was awesome and I liked the overall plot, but it felt so slow. I feel like this was the longest book I’ve ever read.
Beautifully written, but definitely a one and done for me. I love the story and the setting it takes place in, it is really beautiful work.
