Jane Eyre was one of my favorite books because the story was really intriguing and the characters were developed as well.

I finished reading Jane Eyre a couple of days ago. I liked the book as a whole but did not like Mr Rochester.

This one is my absolute favorite book, I read it when I was 8, didn't understand it fully back then. I got back to it when I was 14 and then it only was fully understandable for me. I highly recommend this book, because it made my life different and set the values in my conscience.

Jane Eyre has been and will be one of my favorite classics. That book is quite a page-turner.

There's never a dull moment throughout the book. Something or the other always happens to keep the reader hooked.
I especially loved her days at Lowood Institution.

The first real book that I ever truly read was Jane Eyre, that and the entire Famous Five franchise novels lol! It was a very intriguing read; the writing was simple in my opinion and five years later I am still reading it religiously.

You can’t just hate Jane Eyre. I became a big fan in high school when I isolated myself to read.

I love Jane Eyre! There's also a book called Wide Sargasso Sea by Jean Rhys that explores (in a very different style) the life of Bertha, the crazy woman in the attic, which is definitely worth reading.

This book seems to have a similar effect on people! I, too, read it in high school and disliked it until I was forced to write a literary criticism on it. Then I began to see its beauty. I revisited the book a few years later and fell in love with it. It really is a beautiful story with such intriguing characters. One of my favorites.

I read this book during my first year in high school but did not understand it. Later on when I came across it when I started doing serious reading Iiked it. Perhaps it is the way I sympathized with Jane Eyre who is the main character in the book. The kind of life she underwent during her early stages in life. The challenges she had to face at school and later Overcoming all her predicament in life.
