Jane Eyre

Summary: Surprisingly captivating
Review: At first I expected a dull slow-paced book , but I was soon drawn into the story of this maturing young girl. At first I found it boring, but I'm glad I kept reading despite my innitial impulse to put it down. Once I got into it I couldn't put it down. This is a captivating, well-written book. It is one of the few romance stories I thoroughly enjoyed. I would certainly recommend it to readers of any age.

Summary: descripteful yet romantic and passionate
Review: I think Jane Eyre is a book full of love and point. The book starts off with Jane, a lonely ten year old abandoned by her aunt in a prison-like boarding school. It continues as Jane finds an occupation as a governess fro a little French girl. But, beware as Jane is falling madly in love with Mr. Rochester (her master as she calls him-is it just me or is I Dream of Jeanie popoing into my head), who has a secret terrible enough to destroy Jane and himself too. I recommemd this book for the older more mature reader (13 and up). Even though nine year olds can read this book, to fully understand the passion and adult situations you must be a little more mature. To really fully understand Jane Eyre you must read past the words and into the heart of little troubled Jane.

Summary: I really detest this book
Review: This was a set book for school, and I hated it. A whinny, annoying main character who spends the whole book feeling sorry for herself and moaning in misery, then falls in love with a dark, depressing, manipulative old man and can't get over him, so she gives up her life to take care of him. THIS is a model for feminism? Who wants to bet that if a man had written this, you'd never hear about it?

Summary: THE MORE I READ THE MORE I LIKE
Review: I read this book at least three times and each time I loved it more, the inspiration fires in one soul and it makes you feel that there is always a person that is worse of than you. The religion side of this story does not affect it at all infact I enjoy her thoughts about religion back in those time. I just wished I knew about what Mr R went through when Jane Eyre left him, and the house burnt down any idea's

Summary: An overall great book.
Review: Jane Eyre was a book that I thought was very wel written and I think that if you are an ambitious enough reader, that you can ignore the age suggestins on any type of book. This book backs up my theory. I read this book an my own free time, and I, a nine year old girl, fully enjoyed it. This book is a nice mix of romance and classic liturature and I recomend it to anyone who loves to read.

Summary: Mysterious book that is a true classic in it's own mind
Review: I've never read a piece of work by the Brontes' till I stumbled on this book. I looked at the beautiful cover and said, this looks interesting. I know you are not suppose to judge a book by its cover, so before I got it, I read the first chapter. I was instantly in a world of my own which only inhabited a young girl named, Jane Eyre. I got it out as fast as I could and started to get far away from the world, in this book. I read it constantly, not wanting to put it down. I was surrounded by mystery and passion and thrills all at the same time. The characters were so life-like that I felt like I was standing right next to them, observing them from every angle. It was the most, thrilling experience I've ever had from a book besides 'Little Women.' The writing, it's so creative and follows the rules of realism and describation and the beautiful flow of language. I just couldn't believe that the whole story was fiction and was made up in the author's mind. It seems that it actually happened. This book is a classic and if you haven't read it yet, you are just missing out. I would like anyone who wants to be inspired to write read Ms. Charlotte Bronte's words. Since I'm a writer, it has helped me so much. But, if you are not a writer, I would still recommend it to readers who like to be immersed in books. Everyone should read this!!

Summary: Great book!
Review: While I do admit that I did not read this book of my own free will (It was on my summer reading list), I really liked this book. When I started reading it I found it more than a little boring and wanted to throw in the towel. But, as I got to the heart of the novel I found myself in a thrilling love story with a strange twist. It really wasn't that hard to understand once I got used to the language. This book may be more appealing to females than males due to the female heroine. I honestly couldn't put it down and breezed through it in less than a week. I even read it twice! It is a great mixture of romance and horor and I recomend it.

Summary: A homely girl and a rich man. Enough said.
Review: This book is amaizing. It's the ideal book for any romantic who thinks love is something of the past. Jane Eyre is a homely governess who falls in love with the master of the house. Jane has come from very good family, but because of a someone pain in the butt aunt, is sent to away to boarding school. The story is quite simple actually. Homely girl meets rich man. Homely girl entices rich man with innocence and natural beaty. Rich man dumps blond for homely girl. I'm not going to pretend that every word in this book kept you wanting more, it actually took me close to 200 pages to get interested, but its well worth the wait!!!! Jane is sent from her aunts house to live at a boarding school. She is brave and outspoken after living with her aunt after her mothers death and is not quite welcomed with open arms at her new home. Her only friend dies a short time after Jane's arrival and life isn't everything Jane wanted. She completes school and stays for several years to be a teacher herself. She responds to an ad in the paper about a governess. She is given the position and begins to work for the man she falls in love with.

Summary: Fabulous!!! It just gets better time after time!
Review: Jane Eyre is a masterpiece. A classic in every sense of the word. Charlotte Bronte was a genius. When I read this book, I AM Jane; I feel her anguish, her pain, her excruciating love for Rochester. I feel her desolation when she dreams of him and wakes up alone. Every girl should read this book. As a matter of fact, guys should read this too. Definitely a 10!!!!
