I actually remember thinking that the language used in the retelling of Jane was more formal than in other YA books.Steph @ The Caffeinated Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13572676307512574805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3858014804706808740.post-28716107149939713212011-09-06T11:32:08.940-05:002011-09-06T11:32:08.940-05:00I'm a big fan of the original Jane Eyre and ha...I'm a big fan of the original Jane Eyre and have had my eye on reading this retelling. I'm glad you liked it; I'm sure I will, too. I was curious about how the Jane/Rochester relationship would come across in a YA book today, given the age difference, but if she's 19, then Jane is a little older than most YA heroines.TGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17832981435264804886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3858014804706808740.post-75687850900531854352011-09-02T01:54:34.860-05:002011-09-02T01:54:34.860-05:00Hey There,
I have actually read both. And before ...Hey There,<br /><br />I have actually read both. And before I say anything else, I must admit that I am a totally biased towards the original when it comes to the language. I am a sucker for the 'classical works' and thus I prefer the original. Having said that, I found April's book to be quite an enjoying read.<br /><br />Looking forward to reading yours in a paperback someday... :)<br /><br />Mohur<br />http://mohur.blospot.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00438842700657370558noreply@blogger.com
