My Plain Jane
by Brodi Ashton, Cynthia Hand, Jodi Meadows
CUTE, BUT PLAIN.
This book was simple. A cute, quick read, but not as good as the first one in this "series".
I liked the unique take on the story as a whole. It was a small plot twist for me that I didn't put all together til the end. While it was interesting, I felt it took away from the fact that the story is about Jane. I want her full re-telling, not so much all of the other characters.
Also, Helen annoyed me to no end. I was bothered from the beginning and she never let up. Jane could've gotten by with Helen being there, sometimes, not every single time we went to her POV.
The adaptation of scenes from Jane Eyre, was clever. I noticed what scenes they were referencing, and the changes would make me chuckle. I kind of want to re-read the book to go over everything again!
Definitely a YA book. No language (pre-Victorian era, of course). A kiss scene happens, and some violence.
