I went into Jane Eyre with surface level information about it and I was so confused about what was so appealing about Mr. Rochester.
I think Jane is dumb for going back to him when he basically told her that he was going to ‘chain her up’ with jewellery. He is by far the most unlikable character I’ve ever come across in a book
Graphic: Racism
Moderate: Ableism, Confinement, Abandonment, Colonisation, and Classism
