My favorite novel! I love to re-read it over and over. I’ve always enjoyed Jane’s journey from unwanted orphan to the beloved of the changeable Mr Rochester, who is himself an imperfect yet fascinating romantic lead.

I think this story is about love and its relationship to reconciliation and redemption. In contrast, Wuthering Heights is a sort of opposite book about love and its relationship to revenge. It is worth reading both novels together to benefit from their stark similarities and contrasts. Of course, the authors of each are accomplished poets and the language throughout is pure poetic bliss.

It's a good book. This was my second reading, and it didn't disappoint. The plot tosses and turns in some strange ways, but they each somehow still make sense in the end.

I fell into this story and could not put it down. What a wonderful tale. Loved it

Wonderful story lines and amazing characters! Heartwarming and beautifully told saga from a romantic period.

A beautiful love story and excellent read. I was enthralled from the first chapter and stayed up past my bedtime because difficult to put the book down.

Read this classic after I had seen it on TV. The novel stirred my love for the english language, how you can use it to describe any situation without the prolixity of ‘ you know’ and ‘ aahhh’ . Some words are becoming obsolete due to non usage, I needed a dictionary next to me. It’s fascinating how Bronte in those days conceived a romantic story tying up poverty, religion, friendship and redemption. Lovely.

As rounded as Jane is, internally and externally blossoming, her romantic endeavor with Rochester was confusing and drawn out. I like the premise but did not prefer some plot choices. Great book, just longgggg.

Very beautiful story

It is an obviously well written and thought out story. I found some issue with the romance’s third act conflict. It’s not my favorite love story but I found myself highlighting a few key pieces of the romance, finding that they were articulating a feeling I hadn’t yet been able to put into words. I’m definitely happy to have now read Jane Eyere

This is a magnificent book, one of the classics!

I gave ‘Jane Eyre’ 4 stars for two reasons: 1.) Because it took a fair amount of determination to become comfortable with the language (words not in U. S. English or not used in a familiar way) and the grammatical structure used to reflect the time period of the story and that of the author. 2.) I couldn’t find a way to rate it 4.7 stars. Well worth the effort to become accustomed to the literary style.

why does my girlie never get her happy ending

I hated to separate from the page for the demands of life. Now that our time together has ended, I am fully satiated. I can move on and look back with contentment at our holiday. I am not dismayed. Perhaps I shall visit again someday, perhaps not.

Every time I read the book, my mood is always bonded with Jane‘s. When she was a child and lived at her aunt’s home and was often ill treated, she was abhorrent to her aunt and her two Casons, I abhorred them too; when she was escaping from Mr Rochester and suffering in the Heath, I was suffering the pain of her pain; when she was praying for God’s help, I was praying for her too; when she was crying, I was tearing too; when she was blissful, I felt I enjoyed her gaiety too. Her story was ended, but my Jane is still living in my heart.

I had never read this nor recall watching a movie on this. So surprising and unexpected. Great story telling and the writing is superb. Did not know it would have so many twists and turns.

I love this book. When I have a favorite, I will read it many times just like watching a favorite movie. I have enjoyed this book many times and will read again I’m sure. The classics never fail.

Something about the character of Jane sticks with me. I’ve read this book several times now. I always find myself rooting for her, because she’s been the underdog her whole life. It’s definitely worth your time.

I didn’t expect to like it as much as I did. I feel like it’s written in a way that may not be as popular now yet, it is still well written. Worth reading.
