“Jane Eyre” By Charlotte Brontë Review

Charlotte Brontë tells the story of orphaned Jane Eyre, who grows up in the home of her heartless aunt, enduring loneliness and cruelty. This troubled childhood strengthens Jane’s natural independence and spirit – which prove necessary when she finds employment as a governess to the young ward of Byronic, brooding Mr Rochester. As her feelings for Rochester develop, Jane gradually uncovers Thornfield Hall’s terrible secret, forcing her to make a choice. Should she stay with Rochester and live with the consequences, or follow her convictions – even if it means leaving the man she loves? A novel of intense power and intrigue, Jane Eyre dazzled readers with its passionate depiction of a woman’s search for equality and freedom.

I didn’t know much about this book before getting into it. A part of me was expecting me not liking this book, but I actually did like this book. I don’t think it was a master piece but I am glad that I read it. 

This book talks about Jane Eyre who is a orphan, and we follow her journey through her passions, anger, defiance, strength and overwhelming desire. And I gotta say that this book takes us in a lot of places. No matter how it sounds I actually liked in a way.

A lot of people on the internet says its a “cute romance” book, but in my opinion its very far away from actually being a “cute romance” book. She had two romances going on and but of them were train wracks. Its no other way to summarizes her romances. 

I personally liked Jane Eyre as the main character, but the rest of the characters in this book I didn’t like as much. All the characters expect of Jane Eyre were very generic and I had hard time trying to tell them apart. 

The writing style in this book was very good, which really surprised me because I wasn’t expecting it to be so good as it was. And because of the writing style I gave this book some extra points for this. 

To be very honest I don’t have any strong feelings or thoughts about this book. Im very neutral about this book and I think it was a okay read. I know I am very picky when it comes to books, but thats just how I function as I human being.

I Give This Book 3 / 5
