5.0 out of 5 stars A true favourite - always an amazing read

W. · 18 July 2025

A true classic that reveals much about the attitudes of the day - a romantic tale which doesn’t diminish with time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lovely book

Great quality. Cant wait to read

5.0 out of 5 stars A beautifully written classic

K.C. · 28 April 2025

I’d forgotten how much I love ‘Jane Eyre’. I first read it as a child, through child’s eyes (after having seen the TV adaptation of it in the 80s). I reread it several times in my teenage years, but then it got left at Mum’s house when I went to university. When I got the opportunity to read it again as a book club read, I seized it - and realised how much more there is to it, with 30 years’ more life experience! A beautiful classic that will stand among my favourite books of all time.

4.0 out of 5 stars Annotations extremely helpful but some spoilers

E.W. · 21 July 2023

Great version of the book with annotations and context provided which are extremely useful. The norms of the time expected readers to know some French, as well as be familiar with Bible verses and maybe older language (or dialect). I am sad to say I didn't know most of these so an really grateful for the notesYou could read without, but these really help with the flavour of the book and the full meeting of the dialogue, which in their style is full of implications and indirect and the notes certainly help with thatMy only complaint is that there are some spoilers - the writer had pointed out echoes of future chapters earlier in the book. If you have already read Jane Eyre these are great but if you have never read it or watched the shows, some surprises may be taken away.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Lifelong Joy….to return to and find something new to discover every time.

A.C. · 21 June 2025

I adore this wonderful story….Charlotte Bronte what an incredible novelist.Each time I reread it brings more insights and joy into her gifts of observation and description.

5.0 out of 5 stars Classic

S. · 5 November 2022

I re-read this book many years after studying it at school. It’s a classic story of course and one of literature’s great stories, beautifully written from Jane’s perspective of life and love. It is essentially a female David Copperfield!Jane has a very rough start in life, but it doesn’t really last long. She is sent to an awful school but even there she makes supportive friends and eventually becomes a teacher there. But Jane is ambitious and wants to live her life so she gets a job as a governess at Thornfield. Here she meets the formidable man who ends up falling for our dimunutive heroine. Yep, that’s how life works! There’s the inevitable class conflict but whaddya know, it all works out in the end when, after a midnight flit, a chance encounter and yet another admirer, Jane ends up inheriting a fortune and gets the man of her dreams. It’s all a bit convenient and lucky. She lands on her feet plenty of times. Is that believable? Not really but I guess the author is indulging her fantasies and she has a real love for Jane and given the autobiographical slant that’s to be expected. My take away? - Who doesn’t dream of meeting up with our ex years later to find them blind and missing an arm! Delicious. If only real life mirrored art.

3.0 out of 5 stars Sadly dated

S. · 12 March 2007

This classic, first published 160 years ago is sadly dated. I supposed it shoukd be accepted for the great work of fiction which it is, but my personal opinion is that it does not translate well into present times. There are Dickensian type characters which are interesting. But the style of writing is tiring. Some of the sentences must run into hundreds of words. Jane as a seven year old, loses her rag with her cold aunt, juts out her chin and gives the sort of speech which one would expect from some great thespian. Rochester, who tests Jane to determine whether she truly loves him, is married in innocence to a lunatic who is locked up in the attic. Married to a man like him it is hardly surprising she went off her head. He is so feudal that he thinks, never having heard of "for better for worse" that he can forget his first wife and marry very plain Jane. No doubt he thinks she will be grateful for his attention. However does he think he will get away with bigamy? Rochester made my blood boil.Jane leaves Rochester and makes her way into the great unknown to find alternative employment. Surprisingly enough, the people she ends up with are actually long lost cousins. Her very boring cousin proposes marriage to her with strings amounting to blackmail attached. Fortunately she has enough sense to ditch him in favour of the voice of Rochester calling to her on the wind and having suddenly discovered that she has inherited a fortune, makes her way back to Rochester. Now as luck would have it, Mrs Rochester (the crazy one} must have read Rebecca and does a Mrs Danvers, torching the house and is seen silouetted against the red skyline. Conveniently Jane arrives to find that the man of her fantasies is now a crippled widower who pines for her. Jane (and her considerable fortune which doubtless makes her more attractive, puts all to rights and makes an honest man of him, nursing him through his injuries and producing offspring.I apologise for knocking this great work of literature, but it serves only to show the style of work enjoyed by our ancestors, who happily waded through hundreds of pages. I gave this book three stars as it is considered an all time great - and my mother's favourite,(she read it many times).Frankly, it is easier to watch the movie. There are several versions. But I would not want to read the book again.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Ultimate Classic

P. · 26 September 2024

My favourite book and many times read. Masterful use of the English language to convey the story of Jane Eyre as she fights to survive and flourish from despised, lonely orphan to cherished, fulfilled adult. The vocabulary is extensive, sometimes archaic, so all the better read on kindle with instant access to dictionaries. Just one quibble with this edition is that several lines or phrases are mistakenly repeated but it does not detract from the joy of experiencing English literature at its finest.

One of the best heroines of classic literature

S. · 29 January 2024

First let's start with the copy of my book. I do wish the text could have been a bit bigger when it comes to the font. There is also meanings given in the back of certain phrases and parts that are in french (a really good addition imo). The pages are a bit too white (book readers will get what I mean lol). Overall a good product!Now the story! What can I even say about it. Jane Eyre is a beautiful story of this really strong and brave woman whose struggles through life do not alter the goodness she has. I hated St. John's character (very obvious why once you read it but understandable cause of the time it was written in). Anyways, my favorite part of the book surely was the switch that takes place in the end when it comes to the lack of power that Jane held in the starting of the book. This perfectly balances the power imbalance that was between her and Rochester.Bertha's storyline and her scenes definitely gave me goosebumps. From her creepy laughs to the final revelation! Her presence was definitely the eeriest part of the book.As for Rochester! The twist in the end when it comes to what happens to him was definitely the most shocking part of the entire book to me. His actions at one point generated sympathy at other points a huge question mark for me. But I like that he does realize his actual mistakes by the end and goes on to become better. Well.. if you do plan to read it just go for it! It's quite suitable for people of most ages and also a wonderful read.
