Description
Charlotte Brontë’s most beloved novel describes the passionate love between the courageous orphan Jane Eyre and the brilliant, brooding, and domineering Rochester. The loneliness and cruelty of Jane’s childhood strengthens her natural independence and spirit, which prove invaluable when she takes a position as a governess at Thornfield Hall. But after she falls in love with her sardonic employer, her discovery of his terrible secret forces her to make a heart-wrenching choice. Ever since its publication in 1847, "Jane Eyre" has enthralled every kind of reader, from the most critical and cultivated to the youngest and most unabashedly romantic. It lives as one of the great triumphs of storytelling and as a moving and unforgettable portrayal of a woman's quest for self-respect.

5By millie ZZOverall, I liked it. Sometimes it went in a bit too long, however that was the writing of the times. I learned quite a lot and found many of the concepts to be ahead of the author’s time, and I was very impressed by that. I am happy that I read it.My favorite book
5By Zeynab moonlightI didn’t see Jane as just a fictional character in a book — I lived every moment with her. I felt her pain, her love, and her strength when she chose to walk away from that love. Reading this book was an incredible decision for me, because it captivated and mesmerized me so deeply that I couldn’t put it down for hours. At one point, I realized I had read nearly 500 pages without even noticing. It wasn’t just a book — it was an experience.Beautiful

5By Eric Scott Miller, MD1847, what a remarkable testament to a woman’s intelligence, thoughtfulness, writing skills, and self actualization. I wish the Harris deniers would read this NOW.Exquisite

3By WebalonReally not sure what all the fuss is about. Gothic romance, characters are hardly credibly human but does have a certain charm for its periodicity.Still absorbing and wonderful!!

5By Jbgray11Wow,finally read all of this work;a passionate love story with many twists and turns. Charlotte Brontë is great writer!! Hard to put down!!The Best Fiction
5By Denise in CAFabulous book! Almost a life-long fiction fave. Highly recommended.A welcome reminder that once, we celebrated Virtue.
5By ersatzS2It’s an authentic tragedy that Jane Eyre reads like a quaint and naive throwback to a lost era. Brontë’s heroine is the embodiment of what we used to call character: Virtuous, faithful to her own moral compass, intelligent, rational, compassionate, responsible, courageous, self reliant, generous, forgiving, a person without envy, malice, or greed. It is hard to resist the conclusion that a society in which Jane Eyre could become a popular best-seller is a society preferable to that of our current age.A true love story
5By _Grizzly_Bear_This book is a great love story. It is a real page turner. You won’t want to put it down. My wife and I both used the same quote from this book when we said our vows at our wedding. Follow The main character (Jane) through her trials and tribulations of life. I love this book because Jane faces a lot of adversity and remind resilient. It’s a love story but it’s also a story about resiliency.<3
