Mr. Rochester by Sarah Shoemaker
4.0

Wonderful insight into one of my favourite literary characters, 'Mr Rochester' delves into his past and the motivations behind some of his seemingly bewildering actions during the course of the events of 'Jane Eyre'. The novel is beautifully written and while Rochester tells his story simply, you can't help but sympathise with him, and feel compassion for his situation. It's not hard to understand why he falls so quickly for Jane - since boyhood he's longed for someone to love him honestly and simply and show him kindness, and that's exactly what she gives him. I'd say he'd more than learned his lesson about judging books by their covers.
