Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte

I read this October 2011
Why : because I was going to see the film
What I thought:
I downloaded this onto my phone, and read it at every occasion I could. I started off quite enjoying it after all it is a good story and a Gothic genre novel so up my street, but I must say by about 1/3 of the way in I was struggling with it, I found it over wordy, boring and laborious. I had read it at school (many years ago) and I truly think the Brontes and other female authors of the 'classics' ws the main reason for me avoiding women authors for many years once I could pick my own reading material...too drab, homely, little girl lost , woe is me.

I thought I would enjy this but it was a drag.. shame

5/10
have you read it?
Tell me what you thought of it.
Helen
