What is your favorite scene from Jane Eyre? Were you surprised by the ending? Do you are with her decision about marrying her cousin?

I've heard of it, but I've never read it.

I read it a year or two ago, and loved every minute of it. After all, the novel is a classic for a reason.

Jane's cousin? Do you mean St. John Eyre Rivers?
I always agreed with her decision regarding their marriage. It wasn't the kind of lifestyle that she could have been happy with.

I read Jane Eyre a really long time ago, so I don't really remember what happened :) I remember really liking the book, though. Have you read The Eyre Affair by Jasper Fforde? It's pretty cool and amusing if you've read Jane Eyre.

I read Jane Eyre for school over summer.

We also had to read the Eyre Affair. :]

I enjoyed both books. :]

I've heard of it, but I haven't read it.

I'll be reading it sometime within the next half-year, though, for AP English, which means I probably won't enjoy it half as much as I should.

I have heard of it.
I own it.
I haven't ever read it yet.

I plan on reading it for the
next half of my school year, also
for AP English.

This half, I am trying to get myself
to read the Scarlet Letter.

I've never heard of the Eyre Affair, what is it? Who is it by? For those of you who have not read Jane Eyre, I highly suggest reading it on your own and then going along with it in school. It's one of those books that you may have to read two or three times to really "get it".

I read it in my high school AP English class. The ending, in all truth, did not really surprise me much, at least not as far as who Jane ended up with.

To be honest, I do not care that much for the story as a whole. However, I do really like the first one hundred or so pages of the book - from her days with her cousins the Reeds through to about the time she leaves for Thornfield. After that the story becomes (for me) another variation on the nineteenth-century English romance, and as far as that genre goes I prefer Jane Austen's novels. Jane Eyre's childhood, however, remains with me as a magical time, not literally of course, but definitely so in her youthful world view.

That is definitely an interesting view. I never thought of it that way.
