"Overall, an interesting adaptation of Jane Eyre. It's definitely not as good as the original, but it held my interest. I'm just thrilled that someone finally has given Jane Eyre the attention it deserves (So thanks Lindner). The alterations were very fitting to a modern retelling. By the time I hit the halfway point I had to stay up late to finish it."
