Villette by Charlotte Brontë
5.0
This story was reminiscent of Agnes Grey,
I saw similarities between Rosalie Murray and Ginevra Fanshawe, vain, flirtatious and at times malicious.
As well as Agnes and Lucy, both long suffering, patient and kind.
When I read Agnes Grey I could not help comparing it to Jane Eyre, and it fell short. Now reading Villette I compared it to Agnes Grey and it soared.
Vilette quickly became my favorite Brontë book.
Beautifully written in classic Brontë style, strong willed Lucy Snowe tells her story of life, love and loss.
It is difficult to review this book without giving anything away and every piece of this story is important to read in the order Charlotte Brontë wanted it to be read.
