elabyJane Eyre (book) = SO COOL.
Jane Eyre (character) = Superstitious, independent, able to stand up for herself but not arrogant. Entirely satisfying.
Mr. Rochester = *SWOON*
Elaby's little gothic-romantic heart = Very Happy
I love this book.
Jane was a weird, melancholy, ghosts-and-fairies child, and she's grown up into a still endearingly superstitious, wanderlust-inclined, seriously trying to not be a romantic adult. She holds her own perfectly, is not a silly cow, and holds it together in trying situations. She knows her station but she doesn't let herself get trampled on. She is indignant when she should be.
Best thing about this book: Just when you think there's going to be an Annoyingly Beautiful and Arrogant Upperclass Rival, the plot is redeemed by there being much obvious reciprocation in Jane's feelings for Mr. Rochester.
*dances the dance of the happy lit student*
