I've read JE, but it's definitely not a favorite. I guess her description of the abusive girls school was based on her own experience at the school where her two eldest sisters died. Wow.<br /><br />What a great idea for a review siet. I will certainly check it out.Adriannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10447593887397581091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2334623827849671512.post-77717569042799095532011-05-04T20:17:26.965-07:002011-05-04T20:17:26.965-07:00Did you read Villette?

It's more of a diary of Anne's time as a governess and gives an interesting window to that time period and that profession. I would recommend it to fans of the regency period.Adriannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10447593887397581091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2334623827849671512.post-37495692793697840192011-04-26T19:47:48.249-07:002011-04-26T19:47:48.249-07:00I have to admit that, while I find the Brontes the...I have to admit that, while I find the Brontes themselves interesting, I'm not a big fan of their writing. In their defence, once you get past the melodrama, they really were femisists of their day.Adriannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10447593887397581091noreply@blogger.com
