Currently reading - Jane Eyre


The story is a delightful read, quite as I remember it. I am particularly excited because there is a newly released production of the story, starring Mia Wasikowska (Alice in Wonderland). The only reservation I have about the Penguin Classics edition is that the notes have spoilers. They refer to events happened and that will happen in the story. 

The story follows the life of a young orphaned girl sent to boarding school and eventually ends up working as a governess. Her life takes a turn when she falls in love with her master (employer) and begins to discover the many secrets he hides.

  2. Oh I remember that book, Dave Pelzer's. I read it when I was a teenager and it really hit me hard. Tragic. He wrote sequels as well.
