This makes me grin.
An observation by a classmate on the first five chapters of Jane Eyre (in which ten-year-old Jane suffers abuse from her aunt and cousins and is sent to a boarding school): "Oh, it's just like Harry Potter!"

...a Jane Eyre-Harry Potter crossover is trying to gnaw its way into my brain now and I simply refuse to have anything to do with it.

That hurts my brain, and yet, makes so much sense.

I know that you haven't gotten far enough into Jane Eyre yet, but let's just say that there's a reason that people are like, oh, Jane Eyre, gothic themes. Aka, vaguely supernatural happenings and tru wuv conquers all. (or, er, most of it, bear with me, it's been a while...)

I know more or less how it ends already, having read The Eyre Affair by Jasper Fforde. XD

LMAO

I hated the first ten chapters and in fact, most of the book. I kept on feeling like homg- Jane, stop whining about how lonesome and alone and ugly you are. narration- we get that she's plain and ugly, so stfu.

y'know?
