2.5, but I'm having a hard time making up my mind. On the one hand, there was a lot to like; Jane herself was a definite highlight, as was the social commentary. And it was really engaging most of the time! The post-Thornfield part was a bit of a lull but I was quite impressed with the dissection of St. John's character....On the other hand, I absolutely despise Mr Rochester and everything he stands for, and the treatment of mental illness made me uncomfortable as hell. Let's compare Bertha to a variety of wild animals! Or demons! Throw in some racist insinuations! Anything, lest we see her as a human being in her own right, rather than an inconvenient obstacle on Mr Rochester's path to personal comfort.
