Jane Eyre...a mythical literary figure. The book is great, the writing style is excellent and the story entertaining.
I enjoyed the read, but I got sometimes so annoyed by the character of Jane Eyre. I felt like watching a movie with an idiot character where you’d like to scream at.

The beginning was slow, the middle was boring (including the supposed romantic part) and the end was horrifying(not in a good way). I gave it 2 stars because at least I had no idea where this story was going or how it was going to end.
