Jane Eyre Final Reflection

1) The book fit in well with the "growing to adulthood" theme. Jane starts as a young girl, goes to school, grows up, and geets married. I liked that it had a happy ending and everything worked out well for Jane.

2) What didn't work for me is how long the book was. I feel like it could have been written in much less words and pages. You can't change that because it was the authors writing obviously, but maybe giving us a few more nights for each section would have been more helpful.

3) This book should be taught in College Literature because it is very challenging and will prepare us well for the future. Although I didn't love this book, it probably helped me more than I know. I was able to get through it and understand it. In college I will have to read things I might not enjoy, so this helps me get ready for that.

4) I liked the ending. Jane and Rochester loved each other so I'm glad they got married. I thought it was kind of weird that they could get married because Bertha jumped off of the roof and committed suicide though. It was almost as if he felt like a free man all of a sudden and moved on to wanting to marry Jane right away.
