While I have to admit it took me a while to read, I found myself absolutely loving this book.
I’ve been trying to work my way through classic novels and this one had everything I love. Going through Jane’s life, starting when she was little was such an adventure. When she lost her friend Helen I felt all the emotions. Reading the “will they won’t they” with Mr. Rochester had me kicking and giggling waiting to see if he would finally make a move! This story had everything and more and I can see why it’s a classic. It’s a slow burn, but every moment is filled with depth! The way Jane kept her hope and spirit through all of her trials was something to be admired. Truly loved this read.
