I see a pattern here. Another unjustly treated child. Again without consequences. The author spend a lot of time describing the abuses Jane has suffered as a child for no end other then to establish that she lived in an unfair environment. Unless there is some cunning element at play or something that latter will play a major role in the story, I don't care.

Also, while I almost felt sympathy for the character, the story is just a romance. Poor girl meets rich guy. They're both ugly. Rich guy seems to like her, but he is eccentric, so she cannot know for sure his feelings.
