Summary: This book follows the story of its title character, Jane Eyre, who, after a trying childhood, becomes the governess of a girl who is under the guardianship of Mr. Rochester. As Jane gets to know Mr. Rochester, she finds that his personality, despite being somewhat unusual, is captivating. She also begins to sense, however, that something is not quite right in the Rochester residence, and what she discovers is more shocking than she could have even guessed.

This book starts off a little slow but gets much more interesting as it goes on. It is a book that I found compelling, frustrating, and thought-provoking.
