Jane Eyre

(sorry this is so late, as of last thursday I was still unable to post blogs)

I am reading Jane Eyre and I absolutely love it! I chose this book because my mom told me she has read it three times because she loves it so much, so I figured I would like it too. I also have heard a lot about the book and figured this would be a good time to read it. I am around page 210, so I still have a little way to go.

I think that Jane is such a strong admirable character and I really admire her. I love how Jane is so independent and always stands up for herself. I really enjoyed the beginning of the book, when she was a child at Gateshead, because she always spoke her mind and did what she felt is right.

Right now, I am reading about Jane’s time as a governess at Thornfield. Jane has just conversed with Mr. Rochester and I feel like a strong relationship may develop between them. Again, Jane is self-dependent, and a good role model.
I think I may write my paper on Jane’s struggle and how she has persevered and overcome tough times. I want to write about her strength and independence, and how she is someone to admire.
