Don't know if there are any Jane Eyre fans out there, but my mother told me that although she enjoyed many period works (like Austen for example), Jane Eyre was a book that she could re-read many times. That's why I picked the book. I don't really have time to read it at the moment, but I can listen to it at the times I can't read. I definitely couldn't read and crochet - that would be a disaster.
Jane Eyre is one of the few classics that I enjoyed. I wouldn't say I wanted to read it again, but I'm not a re-reader for the most part. Huck Fin was another one I liked.
