A review by dlberglund
My Plain Jane by Brodi Ashton, Cynthia Hand, Jodi Meadows

4.0

In this snarky retelling of Jane Eyre, Charlotte Bronte is a friend of Jane's at school who follows her to Thornfield Hall...to implore her to please take the job as agent of the British ghosthunting society. Parts of the narrative are still true to the original, but there are many more ghosts, a visit to the king, and many more jokes about brooding men and very plain women. I'll admit (and you can look back at my review for confirmation) that I didn’t really adore the original Jane Eyre. For me, this retelling was a notch or two more amusing.
