Agnes Grey is unabashedly my most-loved Bronte story. Anne Bronte has become my favorite of the three sisters. Recently I listened to the audiobook version of this book and adored it! I'm so happy that I now have my own copy. Hopefully one day they'll make wonderful adaptations of Anne's work.

Finally we know what happened to Jenny! I've been waiting since book one and I was beginning to wonder if her past would ever be revealed. Her backstory was amazing and vivid and I can't wait to read the next book.

You must listen to the audiobook version that Kendrick narrates. This memoir is so transformative and inspiring, it's almost too funny to listen to. I couldn't get this book out of my head for days I loved it so much. It's the kind of audiobook that you don't want to stop listening to, so you hide out in your house to finish it. Kendrick is kind and lovely and isn't afraid to tell the truth. She has a Graham Norton and Gilmore Girls style wit that is hilarious.

This is my favorite book written by three collaborating authoresses. Even though this has been on my to-read shelf forever, I was hesitant about the alternate reality aspect of the story. I'm a fan of historical fiction stories but I am completely here for the magical universe of "My Lady Jane." History and magic are blended smoothly and richly. The concept of Edians is so beautiful that I want ten more books with background information about it! I fell in love with the group of friends in this story, especially Jane in particular. The only reason that I couldn't give this book five stars is because I want more adventures with Jane, Gifford, Edward, and Elizabeth!
