You may think you know the story. After a miserable childhood, penniless orphan Jane Eyre embarks on a new life as a governess at Thornfield Hall. There, she meets one dark, brooding Mr. Rochester. Despite their significant age gap (!) and his uneven temper (!!), they fall in love—and, Reader, she marries him. (!!!)
Or does she?
Prepare for an adventure of Gothic proportions, in which all is not as it seems, a certain gentleman is hiding more than skeletons in his closets, and one orphan Jane Eyre, aspiring author Charlotte Brontë, and supernatural investigator Alexander Blackwood are about to be drawn together on the most epic ghost hunt this side of Wuthering Heights.
This book is so addictive! I can't help but smile and laugh out loud at the antics of such delightful, crazy characters. This wacky retelling of Jane Eyre even has the author as one of the characters. I would have given this 5 stars if the story were trim a bit since some of the chapters are too long. Otherwise, it's a delicious gem of a book and one of my favourite this year.
