A review by novelesque_life
Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë

4.0

3.5 STARS

"The novel focuses on the romance between Jane and Rochester, but Bronte clearly reveals a feminist message through a heroine arguing for sexual equality and refusing to adhere fully to the restrictive expectations of early Victorian society."

In some ways this novel reminded me of Daphne Du Maurier's Rebecca but not as good. We get to see Jane's path to Thornfield but at times I was a bit bored with her observations and did not completely understand her love for Edward Rochester. A good gothic read
