‘I have told you, reader, that I had learnt to love Mr. Rochester: I could not unlove him now, merely because I found that he had ceased to notice me—because I might pass hours in his presence, and he would never once turn his eyes in my direction—‘
I don’t get it.
Even putting aside the known spoiler; Rochester is horrible.
He isn’t good to Jane or anyone.
Girl, stand up!

I get that St John is supposed to be a foil for Rochester.
But just because Jane doesn’t want to freeze to death doesn’t mean she wants to be set on fire.
They are not the only two men in the world, there is someone out there who could love her without being a withholding, controlling dickhead.

I thought the reveal of [spoiler] might be better in context.
It’s worse.
Rochester has been villain monologuing for the past two chapters.
Reader, I hate him in my bones.
This would be a great horror/thriller if it stopped at Chapter 28. Alas.

Ten chapters in and we're finally heading to Thornfield Hall!
