If i was in Jane's shoes, i would have stayed with Mr. Rochester. Jane has nothing and he is the only one that cares for her. She even says that Thornfield is the first place that feels like home. She is loved and secure there and i would definitely stay with him.
I didn't really end up liking the book. I couldn't get into the writing style and it just wasn't very exciting to me. I am more into an action novel than this kind of novel. It was definitely a difficult read for me. Mostly, what didn't work for me was the fact that i wasn't able to get into the book. I never got myself motivated to read every night.
I guess this would be an OK book to assign in college literature. It is a good example of a novel that not many people would read but you would have to learn to power through it and just get it done. It would get a lot of students ready for college level novels. Overall, i would not assign this book if i taught a college literature class but it would be a decent choice a different teacher to assign.
