Book #11: Jane Eyre

By Charlotte Bronte. Again, this is a book I read for school. Which sort of feels like cheating, but when I take into account that I read it over the course of two days, it seems like a much more significant read. I love this book a great deal, and it being my second time reading the dang thing, I understood it much better this time. There's something amazing about old-fashioned writing that grabs my attention and whisks me away into the story. I get to make a soundtrack for this book for school, and I'm ridiculously excited. Which is, of course, incredibly nerdy. I got hooked on Sarah McLachlan's music this fall, and the novel seems to mirror lots of themes in her music-- or is it vice-versa?
