Charlotte Bronte wrote a very interesting novel but I can't say that I'm thoroughly enjoying it. There are some part of Jane Eyre that are good and really interesting, but it isn't that great to me. In the novel it really frustrates me at how poorly Jane was treated when she was a child. I believe that if you had to go through loosing both of your parents at a very young age, that the family members you had to stay with should treat as if you were their own child. Some of the book is off-putting because it gets kinda boring but there are many parts where it is really engaging, like when she thinks she sees the ghost in the Red Room, and when she sees her old servant Bessie for the first time in years.
I really enjoyed the part when Jane was helping Rochester when he was injured. It showed that she is willing to help anybody and it probably gave Rochester more respect for Jane when they actually met. I also enjoyed that Rochester was asking Jane questions about himself before she actually knew who he was. I thought it was pretty interesting and strange that he would do that.
Even though I haven't enjoyed this book as much as most, I'm still very excited to see what will happen further into it.
