As apparently the one person in the world who loves this book and is neutral to negative on Rochester, my two cents: For me the most interesting thing about the book is what a badass Jane is. She's sarcastic and prickly (and, yes, incredibly self-righteous, but personally I find that both believable and fascinating), and she feels completely trapped by everything about her life, as trapped as Bertha is in her attic. Basically her only outlets are art, snark, and sex (or at least the very Victorian-ly implied possibility of sex) and boy does she make the most of them—I always have to stop reading and triumphantly fistpump when she snarks at St. John during his proposal.

Rochester I think is sort of hilariously douchey; I always want to pat him on the head and ask him how many copies of the complete works of Byron he owns (I figure it's got to be three for each house at least, right?). But I love Jane, and I want that fierce bitch to have a happy ending. Even if it's with someone with such an absurdly gothic temperament that he thinks a good idea to dress up like a gypsy at his own party.

I like Jane a lot too. Unfortunately Rochester makes me rage every time I try and talk about him.

Way late to the party, but yes yes yes, a thousand times yes!

THIS, good god, man! I adored Jane from the very first moments of the book, although I'm also a huge sucker for an underdog. Even so, she never plays the victim, although she has every right to, and she is incredibly industrious. She never compromises her principles, and she never kowtows to Rochester, ever -- like you said, she's incredibly sarcastic, and while Rochester is mooning about how impish and fairylike she is, she's looking at him like he's got two heads.

And oh, dear lore, the gypsy scene tips me over the edge every time.
