Mr. Rochester by Sarah Shoemaker
3.0

Nothing can quite compare to the original novel of Jane Eyre and I dare say there are enough stories from the man's point of view that this tale probably wasn't necessary, but it was still a compelling read. Shoemaker is a gifted linguist and she does a lovely job of shading in Rochester's layers if still ultimately failing to justify much of his terrible treatment of Jane.
