I received a digital ebook of this novel in exchange for feedback from Netgalley.
I really enjoyed this adaptation of Jane Eyre. The story is, of course, the classic tale, but the art was lovely, and makes this classic story substantially more accessible to enjoy. While perhaps not a substitute for the original-don't use this for your English project, if you just want to enjoy the story, this is a great option!
I also appreciate the end bit discussing the process of adapting the novel to a manga format. It was very nice.
