Jane eyre is a book that I read expecting pride and prejudice but got like some reality tv show plot twists
LOL SAME
“I’m gonna give the gays everything they want” -Charlotte Brönte, probably
Same omg I thought I was the only one
@@lukeharrington5009 explainn, because i'm gonna read for the first time today
I've just finished it, and my favorite passage is this one:
"Am I hideous, Jane?"
"Very, sir; you always were, you know?"
"Humph! You wickedness has not been taken away from you, wherever you have sojourned."
When I read that: 😂😂💀
I cannot describe with words what this book did to me, I loved it, and It will always be in my heart, the first time I read it, I was really afraid to finish the book, and when I did I cried a lot. Here's my favorite quote:
"I am not an angel, and will never be till the day I die"
I literally cry every time she meets back up with mr Rochester
The Bronte sisters are the perfect combination of high literature and pulp fiction
I am not straight enough to understand Jane’s decisions but also like... I get it
Jane Eyre I need to read again since I'm not in English class anymore, but I do remembered secretly liking it when most of the class didn't.
I think the reason for that is because Jane knows her boundaries and limits. She straight up called Mr. Rochester's bluff and actually left out of a toxic situation AS SHE SHOULD! Most YA female characters. Could. NEVAH!
actually i need a help in studying this novel, for i have a final exam next week
may anyone help me plz
8:48 “I want...the MANOR to be burnt down by a mad woman!!”
This video is so on point and hilarious. Ahh so true, so well put!
I love it so much when people get this enthusiastic and emotional about about a book. Especially if the book is one of my favourites too. What I wouldn't give to read it for the first time again...
I STAN YOU AND CHARLOTTE AND JANE SO MUCH. omg i just finished reading and THIS was exactly my reaction. i too had to stop just right after the marriage proposal because I KNEW. there were still 200 pages left. and i wanted to relish still in the perfect eden of Thornfield's garden.
i relate to Jane in a spiritual level as well. charlotte just speaks to that eternal struggle between the craving of independece but also the craving for love.
and yup, women HAVE had the same taste for men for nearly 200 years.
new follower here, and glad to have find you
thank you !!! it’s been months since i read this and i still get SHOOK thinking about it. the flavour.
Jane is still one of the best books I ever read. It touched my soul in a deep level
When you said “ I need to stop now or I won’t be able to go to sleep”... I felt that
This book tore me. It's absolutely marvelous. I have no words for it. I love Jane and Mr. Rochester 😭
I had a big anxiety attack, then I watched this video and now i am smiling. Beautiful.
i’m so glad this could help you out :) i use youtube to calm my anxiety to
I NEED MORE ENERGY LIKE THIS FROM BOOKTUBERS' BOOK REVIEW!!!!!
Quit the book haul videos, I don't care.
BRUH, I just completed reading JaneEyre and I'm sure that you're the only one who gets me right now. Thank you lmao
I literally cry when you read "as I exclaimed jane jane jane". Love your video, I was exactly like you when I readed.
Here I am sobbing uncontrollably at that ejaculation
I wish I could "like" this review a billion times...you captured what it feels like to read Jane Eyre for the first time perfectly. NO ONE does ANGST like Charlotte Bronte. Bravo
Ur actually making me cry in the middle of the night reading those quotes, I finished this book a week ago and I’m still LOOSING MY MIND. I’m so glad you pointed out the writing style, like every sentence felt like poetry or a punch to the gut. Brontë expressed moods so concisely w/o ever bluntly stating it. I remember one specific instance where Jane suddenly understood something, and Brontë described it as “a pile of linked chains suddenly being pulled taut” AAAA
And your character analysis was great! I will fight you on ur st john hatred but i felt like you _got_ Jane and Mr. R. You’re very entertaining and I’m happy I got to fangirl with you through the screen =) i’ve got to watch your wuthering hights video, that book was the best descent into insanity I’ve ever experienced
I had the same reactions as yours, I loved the video! This book is so pure and gorgeous.. I can’t describe.
One of my fav books ever.
One of my fav lines are:
“I can live alone, if self-respect, and circumstances require me so to do. I need not sell my soul to buy bliss. I have an inward treasure born with me, which can keep me alive if all extraneous delights should be withheld, or offered only at a price I cannot afford to give.”
the things i would do to be able to read chapter 23 again for the first time THE THINGS I WOULD DO
omg , this is so weird and i love it!!! I've just finished the book and i attached a post-it to chapter 23 cause i wanted to read it again and again, it's 😍😍
i absolutely LOVED this VIDEO. your brother not shutting up, the screams that only book readers relate to, the continuous '___ could NEVER'. LITERALLY ME WHILE READING OMG
You expressed my thoughts and feelings exactly 😅 this instantly became one of my favorite books.
I stayed up till 5AM reading this book. I LOVED IT!
This is the first time I've ever seen someone share my reaction to this book. Just... FEELINGS!!!!!!!!!!!! Also, I love your video description.
I felt this on a spiritual level.
Love the video, your emotions were fantastic! It is a great book and I'm from the UK and I put off reading classic books all the time. I've recently listened to the audiobook and this book is amazing. I suggest the audiobook read by Thandiwe Newton. Her performance is mind blowing. It's not just read allowed like most books. The voices are properly distinct and the accents are ludicrously accurate. I think if you enjoyed this book as you showed perhaps listening to a great performance will add more dimension particularly genuine British voice.
Oh my god!! I love this video and I felt what you felt! Every sentence I loved also hurted me! Every sentence he loved her she loved him more! And every “My Edward” was killing me a little more! What I would do to get an Edward Rochester can’t be summarized in one sentence.
jane eyre made me sob like a little baby i fucking LOVED it
Hi. Girl with the Jane Eyre Quote Tattoo here! Having loved this book since I was fourteen, it's always nice to see a newcomer show it the love it deserves. Also, if you like Jane Eyre, I highly recommend The Tenant of Wildfell Hall. It's not as spooky, but it is very dramatic and empowering and *so* underrated. Bright blessings!
She's the only sibling who didn't die of tb. She died during pregnancy, being very sick from the pregnancy.
Thanks for this delightful walk through a first time reading of this book. I read it first when I was 11, and i'm in my 70's now. I'll never get to read it for the first time again.
I could really see me when you read those lines. That was literally how I felt!
I come back to this video now and then. This was the video that made me subscribe! I came upon it after reading Jane Eyre last year, and I felt soooo represented from start to finish. This was exactly how I felt reading that book. 😅
the energy in this videoo!!! my whole heart
this is the best book review I have ever watch. I Stan.
I finished the book last night and I felt desperate. Thanks for sharing this video 🙃
This is like the best review I've ever seen, for anything lol.
"May you never feel what I then felt" BROKE ME
Hell we vibe on the same level, grl. Like I'm in bloody Belarus and u are somewhere else BUT the emotion is just the same. I can't really discuss the book with my friends here coz 'why read Bronte if we have Dostoevsky or Chehov here' and here u are saing all my words with ur mouth and this is something. Thank u for the video
I loved this book and this video made me so happy!
My favourite part was the metaphor of the man finding his lover dead when he thought she was sleeping to describe jane seeing the burnt down manor.
'He thought his love slept sweetly: he finds she is stone dead.'
When Jane Eyre said "for liberty I GASPED" She didn't mean "unless it's for a man" and I love her for that
Didn’t thought i would enjoy a book review that i already read like 5 times at least at my childhood, good video keep up
This is literally the best book rant/review idk I’ve seen:) I LOVE the energy! Just finished Jane Eyre and loved it
Yes! I've had no one to talk about and everything you said I agree with! I was squealing at the screen lol
I finished Jane Eyre today and I just CANT stop thinking about it
just finished this book and URGH I cannot stop crying
watching you lose my mind was so satisfying because I felt it while reading and had no one to scream to.
I loved Jane eyre, wasn’t a huge fan of wuthering heights but loved the Tennant of wildfell hall. If you want to watch a movie about the Brontës then check out to walk invisible. It shows their struggles to get their works published. Also check out the 2006 bbc mini series of Jane eyre with Ruth Wilson and Toby Stephens as Jane & Rochester, that version got me to read the book!
Please dont stop making videos, very well done!
Omg you are golden!!! 😂👏 so glad I found your booktube! Found bc Jane Eyre is my fave and no one gets it, but I think you do 🤘
Best review ever Steph! I need just a small percentage of your energy please. Bottle it and export it 🤣
Hi! I've only just seen this video and at around 3:10, you say your fave could never be like I love you but I can't be with you because you're unhealthy/bad for me. You're right, no one's fave could ever, but there's another spin on the line you read out, and Jane's motivation to leave in general, which no one's fave could ever ever. It may not be "you're bad for me", it may actually be "this is bad for you". Jane is an extremely religious person so at that point, she became the self appointed caretaker of Mr Rochester's soul. He was too weak to see that infidelity eternally damns your soul, so she makes the more spiritually sound choice for him. That throws this character straight into "your fave could not even if you and the fave had a fever dream", what with her foresight and steadfastness to her and her partner's spiritual (at the very least, if not religious) health even though it costs both of them dearly.
I LOVE YOUR COMMENTS AND REACTION. Everything was so real. And now I want to buy the book, thank you. I was expecting a more boring review (like the others I watched) but this one make me exited and make me laugh. So thank you !
thank you so much !!!
Just finished the book today. I relate to this video on a deep level! 😂🙌🏻👌🏻💖💖
I’ve never had a book review make me laugh out loud so much! 😂 I just watched the movie and can’t wait to start the book now
might i suggest north and south? has the same vibe as pride and prejudice but more angsty. not as dramatic as jane eyre but the angst... just thinking about it makes me want to lay down.
by elizabeth gaskell? i’ll check it out !! Thanks :)
@@StephJLWReads yes!!! i know that some people say that the beginning of the book is boring but i love classics so i loved it. but the bbc adaptation for it is truly immaculate :)
North and South was even more angst because both Margaret and John were good people but bad things kept happening to them and John is 10x the man Rochester ever was. He’s my favourite literary hero 😍😍😍😍
Just finished reading Jane Eyre. Omg, I loved it
Christ...Wuthering Heights and The Tenant of Wildfell Hall...also too,too good.
I subscribed because of this review! This book is pure gold! 💛
I've watched this videos way too many times. Love your videos a lot xx
I love your energy so much and you are obviously very intelligent :) Keep it up!!
thank you !!
I loved Wuthering Heights. Very mystical and symbolic.
2:55 I feel you.
Wow, you are really passionate and remind me of Hermione! ❤ Great video!
thank you!! i looove hermione so that means a lot
@@StephJLWReads I love her too! She is awesome.❤
I’m listening to this audiobook while I go on runs but I think I have to stop doing that and actually read it myself bc I’m not appreciating it enough since I’m trying not to die while simultaneously trying to absorb everything.
This Is gold 😂❤️ I’m reading it at the moment, thank you for this! Makes me want to finish it tonight
Hi I am brazilian (so sorry for my english) and I really loved your reactions, this book is so amazing, can’t ever forget Jane
Please watch the 2006 BBc adaptation of Jane Eyre with Ruth Wilson and Toby Stephens. I loved it so much, it also made me lose my mind 😊😂😍
Oh my goodness, yes! My favourite version!
I ordered pride and prejudice so my English teacher gave me Jane Eyre to read while I wait can’t wait to start this book
"He's always yelling on his Xbox!"
Yeah shut up, we're trying to yell on Jane Eyre here! 😂
Enjoyed your excitement and joyful reading. Was saddened to hear your coarse language.
I LOVED THIS VID just finished jane eyre too. the last chapter left me distraught. everything came back full circle. i was unsure of rochester at first but seeing him better himself really made me like me at the end.
Cats and Jane Eyre rock. I got my cat and my copy of Jane Eyre next to me.
so valid
Loved Jane Eyre, HATED wuthering heights. Hope you like it better
Same.
Oh heck yes. This video is exactly me while reading this book. You get it. You get it.
i looove jane eyre with all my heart its probably my fav book, but have mixed feelings with it. i sometimes hate it, cause the novel shows two faces of everything. its very sweet and tender and veeery dark and twisted at the same time.
i hate rochester(though he is sweet sometimes and you feel pity for him) and i understand that the fact he is 'the bad guy' has a feminist porpouse in the story, but i feel charlotte did romanticize violence a bit when she wrote him as a byronic hero, and that really bothers me.. they have this horrible and lovely, perfect and tragic toxic relationship, and it bewitches me, and i believe thats why its a classic. there is something magical about it. loved your review!!!
...(and btw that scene in the garden, when he presses his lips on hers NOT KISS, but speaks to her mouth omgggg HOT😂
When Charlotte published it, she used a man's name at first because no publisher would take her seriously. When the book was a HUGE hit, she showed up at the office and was like, I WROTE IT!!!! If you can, you should really watch The Brontes of Haworth 1973 mini. Amazing story of the Brontes, just as angsty. I loved the part when she was saying that your principles are not to be compromised when things get wacky, that is exactly when you have to stick to them, when your mind, body, and heart are warring against each other. Her strength is so amazing. I could never do it. I would have put my hand on that doorknob and went into his room instead of leaving.
I mean, she leaves, but then she comes back. So...
LOL I am so happy to have found your channel! I freaking love this video.
Welcome!!
@@StephJLWReads Thank you!
Cat and Jane Eyre lover. YOU ARE FAB!
"I don't have time for Snapchat" 😂
I think I was about your age when I read Jane Eyre. Wow. Her words remain powerful and deep. There is a book, written by Marguerite Yourcenar, titled Memoirs of Hadrian, it also blew my mind out its cage.
Jane eyre is my favourite novel since I was a child, but Rochester is a huge, huge, DICK. After keeping the whole crazy wife in the attic schtick a secret, he had the balls to ask her to run away with him and pose as his mistress. I stan Jane for leaving him, but I never like that she went back to him, idc he’s blind and crippled. I’ve learnt to not read it as a love story, but a story of a woman finding her inner strength and being more empowered as she goes through life.
"Your fav could'nt, My fav couldn't " the HT agrees
This is my favorite book of all time. ❤
Where's Anne's and Emily's videos?
When a 19th century book had a woman more empowered than some modern books (aka twilight and fifty shades)
OMG I REALLY LOVE UR VIDEO, MAKE ME SMILE WHEN I WATCH IT ❤️
thank you !! : )
I'm reading it now
And the beginning of the story breaks my heart
This isn't just a romance book
It's her life
I don't want to be rude, but I will be. Kids nowadays really do not know how to speak, do they? When are you going to grow up and use your own words instead of whatever it is that is popular? So disturbing, could not stand to watch til the end.
I LOOVE THIS BOOK REVIEW!!! OMG YOURE ALSO VERY FUNNY, ESPECIALLY TALKING ABOUT YOUR YOUNGER BROTHER!! 😂😂💀💀
If you watched any RUclips videos about Charlotte Bronte's real life you would know she married and died shortly after. She was pregnant and couldn't keep anything down. She wrote to her best friend that she threw up everything she ate and even blood. She died of dehydration something that could be taken care of today. The whole Bronte family had tragic ends except the father.
im 2 mins into this and already subscribed because... same
started reading Jane Eyre and found your video! hah! will resume after i get a bit more reading done haha
Love the review! You need to be an actor/comedian! I am downloading the book right now! Thanks!!!!
I love the story of Jane Eyre. It's a story for men and women. Something about the mystery of it. The pain and rags to riches quality.
i thoroughly enjoyed this
thank you !!
This is great to see from someone -only very slightly- younger than me. Also, I’m a chandelier enthusiast so, well done again. Rochester. Could have been violent, but when he found his soulmate he says he could bend her, break her with his hands and still the soul he loves would not be his. Every principled woman, every lover who truly is in love, should be strong enough to leave when they’re so distraught they can barely speak. Delight in sacrifice because giving in to being the second wrong would have made everything terrible.
St. John is a tyrant, Jane is cute teasing R to get him to feel more deep kinds of love again, you need God in this, who do you think got them to hear each other? And don’t you go near Louisa she toiled in real life. And... I’m jealous of your chandelier with your slang I mean I’m probably younger than you not that it matters. The Brontës had it rough, and yet they were all literary geniuses.
Louisa on the Front Lines - a good, detailed, short biography of Alcott’s life.
This was such a good vlog i love your passion lmao
Can you recommend a novel that would have a narrative similar to that of Jane Eyre? It should be first-person, but also... it should be so honest and fresh. What I like about Jane is the self-reflection and high level of self-awareness of the heroine. She tries to describe her own interior clearly, honestly, and come to terms with herself. In general, the author undoubtedly shows psychological "tendencies" and if she lived in today's times... well, I would tell her that I found examples of reflection, clarification, fight and flight mode, cognitive dissonance, etc. (and to be super honest, prejudices and stereotypes too :D). I would be grateful for recommendations of such psychological novels. It would be great if it was also a morally uplifting book.
