Dorothea is too straight IMO. She never lapses, never gives in to temptation.
Jane Eyre starts out fine and Jane being interesting and capable, but the end is just too much and totally unbelievable.
Cathrine is just a PITA.
Whereas Helen develops from being a bit of a silly creature into a woman taking responibility for her own fate. Defying the boundaries for woman her social status and manages escape, earning her own keep and standing up for what she thinks is right.
