Thank goodness this was selected for book club, since I'd never read it! I really enjoyed it, enjoyed Jane's point of view and her attitude towards independence, and OY VEY the men in this book are pieces of work, but that contributed to the entertainment. Jane's like, I do what I want! No I won't marry you while your wife is locked in the attic, Mr. Rochester! I'mma go teach underprivileged kids and try my hand at match-making! No I won't go to India with you or marry you, Mr. Rivers, because you are super demanding and kind of a lousy robot human and also you're my cousin. (Okay, the latter was less of a problem in the book.) I'm really glad to have read this, especially since the second Lady Janies book is coming out this year ([b:My Plain Jane 36301023 My Plain Jane (The Lady Janies, #2) Cynthia Hand https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1507936746s/36301023.jpg 51943406]), which centers on Jane Eyre's story and I'm so ready to get my paws on it.
