Miranda K. Pennington

Full disclosure at the very start. I didn't finish this book which in itself is very unusual. I found the conversational tone and slangy style unbearable (referring to Jane and Rochester's first encounter as a "meet-cute", in unforgivable. Let's just stop using that term altogether) the overabundance of rhetorical questions tedious and the analysis of the text, as well as the influence and parallels of the author's life, superficial. It just was not to my taste at all.

(I received a free advance copy of this book through Netgalley and Seal Press in return for an honest and unbiased review)… (altro)
