#119. Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë


Title:
Jane Eyre
Author:
Charlotte Brontë
Genre:
Classic Literature
Synopsis:
A young woman, orphaned and raised in an institution, takes a position as a governess in the house of a wealthy but mysterious and taciturn man.
Verdict:
One of my friends has been after me to read this for years and I finally got around to it and wish I had sooner. It’s a lovely book. Despite the Christian aspect, the characters seemed well drawn, intelligent and likeable with strong convictions and little tendency towards dogmatism.
