I found this at my local used bookstore (bookhoundsbooks) and I just had to snag it. I loved Jane Eyre, so I was thrilled to find an alternative version that satisfied my desire for a good fantasy. If you enjoyed the classic, I highly recommend giving this one a chance. I found the changes to be well thought out, and it really fit what I knew about the character’s originally. This story has it all- vampires, werewolves, and necromancers, oh my!- so it really embraces how different creatures would fit together in Jane’s world. While I won’t say what- I will warn that the ending differs from the original in a few key ways. Overall, this version of our darling Jane ranks pretty highly for me 🕷🗡
