bookishsix 's review for:

Jane Steele by Lyndsay Faye
3.0

I would rate the first part of this book a 4-4.5, it was gripping and I was on the edge of my seat! But once Thornfield comes into play the story drags making this a 3-3.5. I actually think I would have preferred this had been Jane Eyre as a serial killer with a heart, rather than someone who is similar to her.

Obviously there’s murder, but also topics of sex, rape, and partner and child abuse so be aware of that going in.
