Jane is a delightful storyteller, full of personality and self determination that she never wavers from for even a moment. No reigns, ardor, or misplaced will can stop her from being her uncompromising self. I couldn't put this one down from the moment I started it. Only reason I didn't give a full 5 stars here is that some of the plot feels too convenient to feel natural at points for me, but I also give it plenty of understanding of it being such an old book.
This book made me cry. Bronte's prose and description are flawless throughout. "Jane Eyre" renders the conflict between duty and self-interest (or passion) with detailed and exacting perfection. As a character, Jane Eyre stands out as one of the strongest female heroines I've read.
Update 7-12-19: This book has lots of issues for me on the second reading. Mr. Rochester is a huge no! I took my rating down.
Loved this book!!!

I finished this book during my winter vacations. It was cool. The author has a very good writing style.
