I'm Still ot Sure What to Think

When I was first handed this book i thought to myself oh gosh another book I have to read. As I sat down to read this book I realized that I have heard this book is great. Maybe it will be great. Now that I have started reading it I have grown to like it more and more. I usually don't like books that take place in this era but this one is intriguing. For the first few days I did not have a book so I think I am a little behind but so far I am thinking Cinderella. The girl with no parents living with another family member only to find herself even more alone. Her horrible cousins beat her, her aunt is also cruel and she just wants to go to school. I was proud of Jane when she found out that she will be going to school. Although Jane did not get a good response from yelling at her aunt and finally telling her off it was uplifting because it shows that Jane is maturing and becoming her own person. I still am a little lost on if I like this book just due to the fact that I don't normally read this genre, but I think I am getting used to it and am liking it more as a I read.

I'm curious both about what you mean by "this era" (the Victorian period) and what it is that you don't like about it. Try to be more specific (I'd genuinely like to know).
