I've read Jane Eyre, by Charlotte Brontë. The book is about the romance between Jane Eyre, a governess at Thornfield Hall, and Edward Rochester, the master of the house. Jane arrives there aged eighteen after a hard childhood, and meets Mr. Rochester, a man in his late thirties with a difficult temper. They slowly fall for each other, but some impediments will make their relationship seem imposible.
As jane Eyre, it's not so easy for me to open up to people I don't know. Just like her, I'd rather be guided by common sense, putting it over my emotions.
I loved the book, but I think that not everyone would like it because some of the character's feelings may seem too subtle, specially Jane's. My favourite part of the book was when Mr. Rochester disguised as a gipsy woman and pretended to make Jane jealous of Miss Ingram. He was in some way telling her that he was interested in her, Jane! My least favourite part was Jane's childhood at Lowood because I found it boring. I don't think that I wouyld change anything in this book. It is what it has to be,

I liked the fact that neither Mr. Rochester nor Jane were perfect on their own, but they complimented each other really well. It didn't matter the age gap between them, not their different economic and social situation, they loved each other. Also, I liked the fact that Jane decided to put her dignity over her feelings. It was really difficult for her but she was really strong.
