I'm a scifi guy but have read Jane Eyre three times. I don't think I can define the appeal. Or why I connect Jane with Beth Harmon and perhaps Lisbeth Salandar.

- QuesnayJr 5y agoI was just trying to explain why Jane Eyre was good to someone, and it's really hard to put into words.
- spoonjim 5y agoHuh, I quit it at 35 of 38 chapters. I kept reading thinking “surely this will get good at some point” but then I realized that for me, it wouldn’t.
- pugio 5y agoHave you read The Eyre Affair? A quirky, humorous, combination of Jane Eyre with a scifi world obsessed with literature. Lots of fun.
- Hedepig 5y agoAlso a lover of sci-fi/fantasy I watched the 2011 film and wondered if I might enjoy reading the book now I know what will happen. But you've convinced me to give it a go. I know it's not quite the same but I'm Reading through the Anne of Green Gables series and thoroughly enjoying it.
