I read JANE EYRE mainly so I could say I read JANE EYRE. Though there were good parts and some great writing, it was an exhausting experience. It may have been because I was reading an annotated edition, which explained everything! However, that was helpful at time due to the colloquial terms and now obscure references.
Overall, it was an enjoyable experience and I couldn't wait to finish, just to see where she ended up. It started off rather gloomy, and pretty much stayed that way until the middle. However, considering when she was born, and when the book was written, she did all right for herself.
