A witchy new take on Jane Eyre? yes please. Jane Aire is an orphan witch who also teaches magic and at a sheltered girl's school. When she is asked to come to Thornfield hall and help the reclusive master of it get rid of whatever is haunting it, she can't say no. Edward Rochester is at his wit's end, something is haunting his home, the servants are threatening to leave, he keeps seeing his dead ex-wife and hearing mysterious things, and he just can't explain the nightmares that plague him... so he hires Jane. Jane finds herself building a strange friendship with her prickly employer, yet the more she begins to unravel what is happening at Thornfield Hall the more she is beginning to think that whatever it is is too powerful for her and that she might not be able to protect the man she is falling in love with. This was a gothic witchy take on the classic, yet it does remove a few of the elements (cough cough, Rochester's wife being trapped and such) and it definitely sat better with me. I was never a big fan of the original story but I had fun with this one and enjoyed it. I think it'd make a great cozy read on a rainy or cold day! Jane feels so much more spirited and the relationship between her and Rochester was nice.
