Villette by Charlotte Brontë
3.0

Intriquitly written (as are most books in this time), specifically the language and unique vocabulary. Introduction stated that Bronte loosely based this on events similarly experienced in her own life. The main character is so naive, it is frustrating at times and I hope that Bronte didn't see herself as that blind. Some of the conversations between characters are in French (not translated to English), which makes it a bit hard to follow. And the ending (not to mention any specifics) was extremely disappointing.
