Blurb It's simple: you suggest me a book or movella and I might review it. I may also review books I've already read while I'm reading a suggested book. You cannot suggest movellas you've written or co-written yourself; these requests will be ignored. Enjoy, and suggest away!

1. Jane Eyre

Jane's childhood is tough. Raised by her harsh aunt with her horrid cousins, she is sent to boarding school. We see her suffer losing a dear friend and the next time we see her, she is eighteen years old, looking for a job as a governess. She is then called up to teach a young French girl at Thornfield. When she gets there, she falls instantly in love with the owner, Mr Rochester.... and a perplexing mystery. Strange things are going on as maniacal laughter is heard from the attic and house attendents are attacked. The answer to the mystery is shocking.

This book gripped me from beginning to end. I was instantly swept into Jane's terrifying world of love and betrayl. Her story was captivating, and I was anxious to find out who was hiding in the attic. This is a mix of romance and mystery, a perfect blend. However, the ending didn't feel as satisfying as the rest of the book, as it was a bit predicatable. Apart from that an amazing book!

I would suggest this story to more confident readers, but I suppose most readers on Movellas are confident. You do have to concentrate as the vocabulary is quite old-fashioned; it is a classic, after all. However, it's so worth it to experiance this spell-binding story. I highly recommend it!

  • lupus virgoHey-low? by Lia-loves-cookies
    It is awsome!!!!!
  • Prince Jang 현승The Perks of Being a Wallflower - Stephen Chbosky
    You won't regret reading that book.
  • The Midnight SunI can think of loads you could write about but I guess we have both read The Curious Incident Of The Dog In The Night-Time! XD
  • AutumnFyreGreat idea! I have read Jane Eyre and you have described the action vividly without giving away the mystery of the strange occurances in the house. Who was your favourite character? I quite liked Jane as although she was quite cliché (being plain, brown haired etc...) you wanted to find out more about her. I have had bad history with classics as I didn't enjoy (sorry) Charles Dicken's "Great Expectations." But with this one I was pleasantly surprised.
    I agree with Black Angel and I am sure 4mel1e will as well on The Hunger Games because the first book was amazing! But on the other two I am not so sure, so I would like to hear your opinion! Please have a look at my new movella because I have published it quite late and I would love to know what you think! :-D Well done!
