John Eyre: A Tale of Darkness and Shadow by Mimi Matthews

4.0

Retelling of Jane Eure

I really enjoyed this gender swapped story, and the gothic elements were nicely done. The writing is engaging, and the character of John is a sympathetic one. Mrs. Rochester was more of an enigma at the beginning of the book, but gradually her character is fleshed out. I liked Stephen and Peter as they became more solid characters through the course of the book as well.
