This is one of the best romantic novels of all time

I simple love this novel. I read it in high school on my own. Jane Eyre is the first romance novel ever. Bronte opened the genre and allowed other women to break into writing because of it. I think the love between Jane and Rochester is something we all come in contact with somehow someway.

Yes I agree. THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE ROMANTIC NOVEL! aww.. This is indeed one of my favorite classics!!!! I like Jane because of her simplicity, and well Edwardn who happens to be her employer.. I like him too, haha, i liked him because of his imperfections.. haha

i donot much go for romantic novels,i think they are bit silly,which changes with the changing moods ,but i definetly go through this book of jane.i do like to read good novels.

I agree with you, I too read Jane Eyre but in H.S. It was for a english class and I have seen two version of it. For me it ranks as high as other love stories I have read. The lesson I learned was that love endures all challenges no matter what they are. Is there such love out there? I really don't know. I do know the book is good reading........

I think people thought differently in those times, they were brought up to believe in strict moral values. The very problems they face would not exist in our times, at least not where I live. Rochester would put his first wife in a home and divorce her, and Jane would marry him without any bad conscience. But would they love each other as much if there were no obstacles? And is there even love like that?

I think the way people thought was different in those times. They were brought up to believe in strict moral values. The very problems they face would not exist in our time, at least not where I live. Rochester would put his first wife in a home and divorce her, and Jane would marry him - or live with him - without any bad conscience. But would they love each other the same if there were no obstacles? And is there even love like that? I do love Jane Eyre though.

I also read Jane Eyre for school. I wan't expecting to like it, but I really did. I don't read very many books that are romantic, so I guess I couldn't really say if it is one of the best, but at the least it is a classic. I'm sure there are other good romance stories as well, though. But I don't agree that it is only because of the era. There is no reason that modern people cannot fall in love or be as romantic as the characters in Jane Eyre, and also there is no reason why a book written more recently couldn't be as romantic as this one. Maybe that setting just appeals to you?

Hi tumenoa, Jane Eyre is still my most favourite Romantic Novel the thread of the story is timeless. People like those two loved and the same can be said of people nowadays too. Charlotte Bronte put this to pen and paper so very well that you could associate it with all most any era the situation could be the same. Say it could take place the same situation on a Spacecraft going to the Moon in about 500 years time. How do we know that it cannot exist because we won´t be there but her story will be and all those never ending love stories like it too. There are many Jane Eyres and Rochesters running around the World today but I just hope that there are not any lowood Institutes going about anymore. I love Jane and Rochester because they are not Mr. and Miss Universe they are ordinary people thrown together in a hypocritical society that it was then so cold and cruel. Nevertheless Jane Eyre for me has a message that is timeless just llove it.

I did try to read Jane Eyre once,something about an orphanage but it was boring as hell(no offense to any fans out there)as I stopped trying.Lucky I didn't have to read this as an assignment because I probably would have failed it.The writing style as a dry and weird,not what I'm used to I guess.I only tried because it was one of those romantic classics

Yes,I Love Jane Eyre Also,I Don't Know How Many Times I Readed It & Watching The Movie!!!!I Love All Sisters Bronte's Romances,But My Favorites Are Emily & Charlotte...Anne,I Like Some Of Her Books,But Not All!!!! Enjoy Your Night!!!!
