In addition to Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House, Jane Eyre—one of the greatest books ever—was also published on this day. The 16th of October ... what a monumental day for #spinsterlit 🖤🙌🏽
“Till morning...I was tossed on a buoyant but unquiet sea, where billows of trouble rolled under surges of joy. I thought...I saw beyond its wild waters a shore...now and then a freshening gale, wakened by hope, bore my spirit triumphantly towards the bourne: but I could not reach it...a counteracting breeze...continually drove me back. Sense would resist delirium: judgment would warn passion. Too feverish to rest, I rose as soon as day dawned.”
“My Master,” he says, “has forewarned me. Daily He announces more distinctly, -‘Surely I come quickly!‘ and hourly I more eagerly respond,- ‘Amen; even so come,Lord Jesus!‘”

pickI‘ve read and listened to this book many times. It was time to revisit it again. The 2011 version of the movie is my favorite, and now I picture these actors when I read. #myfavoritebook 5/5❤️s always.
❤️❤️❤️
pickThis did not age well. I loved this book when I was younger. And the only reason that I gave it four stars instead of 3 was because Jane is such an amazing heroine. But the men in this book are terrible.
so-soPage 172/433, unfortunately somehow this magnificent book became boring the moment she became a governess and met our leading man. If a tv show became boring i would move on after a couple episodes left me uninvested; so, i will treat this book the same way, save myself some many boring/frustrated hours, read a different book, and come back to this when i am ready and refreshed and having forgotten the feeling of boredom.
Cool garage sale find today 😍
Decided on the books I‘ll be focusing on for the rest of the month and for the #24B4Monday Readathon.
I‘ve recently started the tagged book (I‘ve never read it before). And I‘m about 80 pages into Pachinko.
My goal is to finish 3 more books before the end of the month, very ambitious!! 😬😬
We‘ll see!
pickHands down one of the best or the best books I have ever read. Both the execution and plot/character is perfect. I love this book and something about its personality has brought me back to fourth grade which was somewhat of a golden age of reading for me. I am on Chapter 10, 85/433 pages in.

#bookhaul! I got some great ones, including a new edition of Jane Eyre, all for great prices! Now time to curl up and (hopefully) read fifty pages of That Hideous Strength #summersendreadathon
Watched this version of Jane Eyre on Netflix this week and god, Mia Wasikowska was amazing! I know she doesn‘t want to be typecast as the nineteenth century literary heroine actress, but I would pay to see her do all my favourites! Also Michael Fassbender... I‘ve never really been a Rochester fan... but Fassbender, I‘m prepared to swoon for Fassbender! 😍😂😂😂
“And have you a pale blue dress on?”
I just finished rereading JANE EYRE, and I am so glad I did. It reminded me why it is a classic, and I found the drawings reproduced in the iBooks ebook edition to be especially charming.
My husband is a Friends fan 😏
Out of curiosity I decided to go through the #1001books list and pull out the books I own but haven't yet read from it. I made quite a nice pile 😄 38 here, and I also have about 8 in ebook. #neverendingtbr
pickLoved this classic - plot, writing and characters! Jane Eyre is one of my favorite fictional characters now. Love her sassy, resilient & strong attitude.
Rating: 5⭐

I firmly believe that, had she been around, our Jane would have read and enjoyed Jane Eyre. Despite the fact that Charlotte Brontë apparently didn‘t appreciate Jane Austen‘s novels...
I try not to hold that against Charlotte because Jane Eyre is awesome. ?

Just too hard to resist this $5 sale..... I found some great classics, and a few from my #tbr.... 😊👍📚🎧
My hands down favorite book. Rereading again. Because comfort is needed.
Seems one thing after another lately, I am not a complainer ever. But after I recovered from food poisoning fully, this week I threw my back out. I can‘t walk or move at all. Excruciating pain. My family all moved too recently so I‘m on my own with my toddler. I can‘t catch a break! Thank God for good books❤️ needing the escape more then usual right now.
Conversation between Mr. Rochester and Jane.
Oh, how I love Jane! She's ever so honest with her speech, no filter! 🤣
pickReader, I have finally finished this book! 😎🤣 SO MANY.FEELINGS!! ♥️ This was quite an experience! And while it wasn‘t my fave classic I‘ve ever read, I laughed I cried etc. Beautifully written with such an iconic, strong MC that she feels completely real. The author expresses things I‘ve felt in love but could never put into words... which is refreshing and delightfully shocking at the same time ☺️
⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️& 1/2 out of 5.
Attempting to finish #JaneEyre once and for all! 😎

“I would always rather be happy than dignified”
I‘ve always love reading & libraries been my paradise on earth, but wasn't a big fan & didn‘t appreciate #Classics (except for few children‘s & “not romance” classics) til recently, when I don‘t have to analysis every details & then write papers about them.
