Just finished the book, I was expecting St. john was going to ask Jane to marry her when. But I thought that was a dumb idea I had in my head, but when he said that she should go to India with him as his wife, I was more surprised. I am happy that she heard Rochesters voice and decided to go back to not be tied down with St. John. Then finding out Bertha killed herself made me not like happy but some what relieved, she was miserable and she obviously didn't want to live and she did it in a way so she could take Rochester with her, but he escaped that death. It's ironic though it was a fire, because Bertha set fire to his bed where Jane saved him.
I liked the ending her being with Rochester, equal to each other.
Yes, I think the ending is pretty satisfying--the equality its establishes between Jane and Rochester, and the fun reversal of the second proposal (wherein Jane is messing with Rochester rather than vice-versa). Glad you enjoyed it!
