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.
Schools should require this reading, even just for the vocabulary

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.
Good but very drawn out

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.
A+

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

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.

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.
