my love for jane eyre and wuthering heights prompted me to pick up a novel by the third bronte sister.
i liked it well enough. it read really quickly, but it wasn't as good as the others by a long shot.
the whole novel felt rushed, like the teller couldn't wait to get it over with. there were hardly any details. she talks about hardships and degradations, but you never really get a good idea of what they were.
the plot was predictable. i knew how it was going to end long before it happened.
i would be willing to give anne another shot. but i probably wouldn't read this book again.
