I'm probably one of the few who does not like Jane Eyre at all. What can I say? English Literature has scarred me for life. I blame the education system. Don't think I'll ever give this one a try again.
This was an interesting read. As a teenager I read this several times but what I didn't know at the time, I was reading a condensed version of the story. I also had some trepidation about re-reading the story as I have re-read some other teenage favourites and wondered why I liked them in the first...
