My fourteen-year-old will be reading this novel for his English course this coming year. Even though I began the book feeling a bit intimidated, I quickly settled into the story and was surprisingly delighted with it! In fact, when I was not reading it, I would find my mind wandering into Jane's world and longing to read the story without interruption! Not many stories have captured my mind like this in a long time.
Volume 1 focuses on Jane as a ten-year-old and finishes with her rescuing Mr. Rochester from a fire. Volume 2 delves into her time at Mr. Rochester's house and her unexpected romance. Volume 3 finds Jane learning to be independent and also discovering what true love is.
A thought-provoking novel that provides the reader with romance and mystery.
*Highly recommend for high schoolers and adults. (over 500 pages long)
-I own this book.
After my son reads this novel, I will be watching the 2011 Jane Eyre movie with him.
