My thoughts about Jane Eyre
So far, of what we read as a whole I think it is pretty good. Jane's life in the beginning is pretty awful, she is bullied by John Reed, is forced to do work and is locked up in the red room. That is no way for a ten year old girl to grow up, and i think that it will impact her later in her life, with her decisions and how she interacts with other people. One thing i found particularly interesting was the depiction of the the fire contained by the iron bars, which represents her passion that is contained inside her. I think that because she has so much passion for things she wants and believes contained inside of her it that sooner or later that she wont be able to anymore and it. When it all finally comes out, it will be interesting to see hoe she reacts and what will happen.

tj you have great typing fingers. I'm so happy you are enjoying the book. does this book relate to you in any way? Is there anything in the book that has happened to you? You gave a good summary of the book, now lets here your beautiful voice talk about what it means to you :)
ReplyDeleteTJ,
ReplyDeleteWhile I enjoyed hearing your thoughts, they seem confined to the very early chapters of the novel. I hope that you are working to catch up on the reading--and I certainly think you are going to enjoy the scenes you encounter when you do.
