Top review
An unforgettable love story!
Orphaned Jane Eyre grows up under her cruel aunt. Highly spirited and natural independence made her look stubborn and wayward to society's norm. Was then decided to be sent off by her aunt to charity school when she was 10 years old. After years of staying in school being a student Her inquisitiveness and eager to reach out and experience the world different from where she was sheltered to live, she then decided to take a job as a governess at Thornfield Hall. Falling in love with Mr. Rochester also means having to choose between love or self-preservation.
If you're reluctant to read this book: Then I say just to grab it, get comfy and give it a try! For two things- One, the main character is fiercely smart, outspoken and quite independent. Two, it's seldom that you read a love story that is considered to be "meeting of the minds and ideals" rather than physical attraction (for the leading man in this book is described to be "ugly" that is through Bronte's description.) Expect it to be a lot different compared to Emily Bronte's writing but still a love story worth reading! by R.D-Diaz
