I think I’m going to start a kind of book club, but only with myself. If anyone wants to read my current book and talk about it, that would be awesome too! For now, though, I’m just going to sort of track my journey and write out my thoughts. I’m currently reading Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte. I have wanted to read it for a while and have finally gotten around to it. I wasn’t aware, but my mom owns this beautiful copy which makes reading it all the more magical. I’m on chapter 13, page 136 at the moment. Jane just met Mr. Rochester, so I don’t have anything to say about him quite yet besides the fact that I like how he is regarded as a little odd. His first encounter with Jane certainly was strange because of how he acted like he wanted to know who Mr. Rochester was, but I think it makes him interesting. I have gotten to read all about Jane’s young life, and I really like her as a character so far. She has a short temper, and can’t stand not speaking out against injustices, which reminds me of myself. She also has made some hardcore feminist remarks, which I love, and I was happily surprised to find in such a classic book. The way that Bronte describes things is very academic and wordy yet it paints the picture clearly in my head, which I really appreciate. Overall, I like the novel so far and am excited to get into the romance aspect!
