This wasn't great but this is my brand of Trash™️ so I loved it...😔💕

90% of this movie is literally just Rochester yelling and being a stupid dude bro but that's ok because boys'll be boys, y'know?😩

#jojo simps #ciaran hinds #jane eyre 1997 #this movie was kinda funny tho #the use of slo-mo and zoom-in shots were so out of place and random it really kept me on my toes lmfao #but literally i was just *heart eyes emoji* the whole time #literally my brand of guilty pleasure trash i hated it but i loved it💕 #ciarán hinds thank you for making this both bearable and UNbearable at the same time ily😘🥰😫💦

So I read Jane Eyre after I watched a confusing adaptation (2011, I literally never figured out who Adele was), and hearing a lot about it from friends. I expected to hate Rochester. I also expected to hate the final ship.

and I DID hate Rochester! He was such a jerk! The chapter where he proposes was awful. Why is he making her believe he’s going to marry Blanche if he’s in love with Jane? What is wrong with this man?!?

But then I met St. John Rivers and I was so extremely and totally creeped out that I honestly thought: 

BRING ME BACK THE BIGAMIST

Cheered when she went back to find Rochester and then married him. Did not hate the final ship at all.

So I guess my assessment of men is mediated by the goodness of other men within book? Maybe I like Henry Crawford of Mansfield Park because the Bertrams suck so much? Maybe I like Gilbert Markham because the other men in Tenant are the bottom of the barrel? Like the scum under the bottom of the barrel or the bugs hiding under the barrel...

I don’t know. I try to be objective. But then I think the point of Mansfield Park is that you start to root for Henry and Fanny, or at least for Henry to be better. If I believe Gilbert is as bad as Arthur, than the ending of Tenant is just so freaking depressing. I guess I’m accepting the world the author built, she tells me Gilbert is essentially a good guy who messed up but is capable of growth, I’m in.

But I guess who is really objective anyway? As much as I true to use quotes and sources, are we not all half running on vibes?

#I guess he's an attempted bigamist #still tho #jane eyre #rochester #charlotte brontë #anne brontë #the tenant of wildfell hall #henry crawford #gilbert markham #I had a plan to only post like twice today #opps #st john rivers #creeps me out so much #crushing jane's soul slowly #I think I compare Edmund between the other Austen heroes #and Henry to Edmund maybe?

#where was this when i was crying about struggling with the classics #huh? #those bronte sisters tho #wuthering heights #is my jam #jane eyre #also my jam #its gotta be wildfell hall next no? #crossing my fingers that this will be 3 for 3 #booklr #book recs #bronte sisters

#he's been reading it on and off for geez idek how long now probably at least a few months #im not normally a fast reader but i did read jane eyre in exactly one week #that overlapped w my spring break tho. i went feral #to think that was five years ago almost... crazy #tales from diana #i saw the lights on downstairs and i went down to check what that was for and i found him in his office reading #and he said 'im still working' (he did in fact have his work open on his computer) #hes been liking it #i think we all remember the first time we read jane eyre and we saw jane and rochester got engaged #and panicking bc there was still sooooo much book left. oh my god #the level of not ok that was #jane eyre really is the goddamn best. like it really is #it invented new emotions in me. brother #he's almost done though. i can tell he's enjoying it bc he's been reading it more lately

We need more historical romance film/TV adaptations, it's sad the amount of crumbs we are given to swoon over.

#sanditon #pride and prejudice #emma #Bridgerton #historical romance #its honestly one of my favorite genres since i was a teen #my hearts beating faster thinking of the possibilities #i know there are more smaller productions but idk why dont we get more big name stuff like everyone else does #tho if someone sees this and wants to rec something hehe #jane eyre #marie antoinette

[lesbianmarrow]

jane getting worked up about how mr rochester could never seek to marry her when he could instead pursue blanche and then painting a beautiful watercolor portrait of blanche to look at constantly as a reminder of how much more desirable she is?????????

#something wrong with her. i love her tho #jane eyre #syl posts

One of these things is not like the others, one of these things just isn’t the same—

#romeo and juliet #wuthering heights #the great gatsby #jane eyre #granted romeo is a decided c minus in terms of parental approval #but in the same league as freakin’ HEATHCLIFF? #even gatsby… #i guess OP means extremely passionate high-octane lovers #byronic heroes maybe #bad boys tho carries a very different connotation #well he is morally compromised #re:murder of tybalt #but still it’s…off #cristina opines #it’s lit

[ravenkings]

i wish there were romances/ships where you have a woman as like the grumpy/goth one and a man as the “sunshine”/cheery/slightly manic one

#i think one of the reasons that i like jane eyre so much is that it's a version of this #tho obviously rochester is extremely angsty #also potentially howl's moving castle (the novel) #text

[sucharide]

Look Jane is very brave and I love her dearly but I simply would have run away with Mr Rochester because I am indeed a whore

#jane eyre #:)))) #she's iconic tho #for so many reasons #i would actually die for her. not mr rochester tho he's too stupid #(i am lying i would also die for mr rochester im just not proud of that fact ❤️)

I joined Storygraph since something I wanted to do starting in 2024 was track what I read and Goodreads' UI looks awful, but I have to say, the ratings on Storygraph are even more brutal than goodreads?? like Jane Eyre has a 4.1? The Secret History a 4.2? I could go on with a lot of other examples, but are people okay? lol

I like the app overall-ish though. I feel like it could be more interactive on a community level, but I'll keep with it for now.

My username is linds_a_latte if anyone wants to add me : )

#storygraph #jane eyre #the secret history #reading #bookish #bookblr #Manacled isn't allowed a rating tho bc it's not a “real book”?? #props to goodreads for allowing ratings and reviews on fanfic #goodreads

[maddiesbookshelves]

It's Jane Eyre time!

Thank you for making me laugh so hard 😂 This totally came out of nowhere and Jane Eyre didn't even finish second in the poll I did a while back

However, I will read it. Soon, I hope. I can't right now because 1) I'm on the 5th book of Lady Trent's memoirs and 2) I'm on vacation until the end of the month so I don't have my copy of Jane Eyre with me. But don't worry Anon, I will read Jane Eyre before the end of this year, I promise

#anon ask #asks #maddie answers asks #i got an ask! #jane eyre #seriously tho #this ask surprised me so much i laugh for 5 minutes straight #thanks anon

WHEN will someone offer me their hand, heart, and all their earthly possessions......

#they dont need to have a wife in the attic tho. #yes im watching the 2006 jane eyre adaptation. again.

[janeeyreheresy]

There's a town in Sicily called Bronte, so naturally I now headcanon that Rochester's Italian mistress Giacinta was from there.

#giacinta the mistress #rochester is a villain #not recap #charlotte bronte #jane eyre #hilarious considering charlotte's xenophobia #they've got their kind of pizza there too. i haven't tasted it tho

[w4rcr1me5]

I’m rereading Jane Eyre because I can’t escape AP Lit
