<p>For those of you who have read any of her books, did you ever notice the way Mrs. Bennet addresses Mr. Bennet in Pride and Prejudice?</p>
<p>I mean, the woman is SLEEPING with the guy. She has sex with him every night. This lady has kids with this man. But yet- she still calls him "Mr. Bennet". Even when they are in private. </p>
<p>I know these were other times but, excuse my language, Jane Eyre was tripping.</p>
<p>I pretended to read Jane Eyre and I used Sparknotes, so I don't remember that part.</p>
<p>Before the middle of the 20th century, that's the way it was for upper class society.</p>
<p>"Jane Eyre was tripping"
^Jane Austen, do you mean? 0_0</p>
<p>Jane Eyre is another novel entirely, written by Charlotte Bronte.</p>
<p>LMFAO. I love how you post a thread of your insecurities of entitling people. hahaha. Who am I to talk though? hahaha</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>LOL!!!!!!!!!!!</p>
<p>Omg yes!!! I totally meant Jane Austen! Oh gosh my ignorance cracks me up. =D</p>
<p>Rofl @ This Topic</p>
<p>who the heck is jane eyre or jane austen?</p>
<p>pride and prejudice? WHAT???</p>
<p>what is this madness.</p>
<p>^ I know. I am totally lost!</p>
<p>i like jane eyre</p>
<p>I don't know! I sparknoted all the books for English class in the past 2 years.</p>
<p>I liked Jane Eyre. I can't explain why, but I was never disappointed after reading it.</p>
<p>Jane Austen, on the other hand, is totally overrated, and I wouldn't reread Pride and Prejudice even if a gun was held up against my head.</p>
<p>What if a knife was held up to your nuts?</p>
<p>Okay, maybe then. But I would have to have an ample supply of Pepto-Bismol around.</p>
<p>my mom made me, er encouraged me to read Jane Eyre when I was about 8 years old. I actually liked it after getting into it. Pride and Prejudice,on the other hand, i couldn't bear to finish</p>
<p>LMAO do you actually read when you're 8 years old, especially a book of that length.</p>
<p>...</p>
<p>I actually like Jane Austen >_> <em>dodges rocks</em></p>
<p>Seriously though, if you want to give her a shot, read Persuasion, not Pride & Prejudice. It's shorter and a more enjoyable read.</p>
<p>Conclusion: Both Pride and Prejudice and Jane Eyre suck. (I've never read either.)</p>
<p>I remember nailing down my first novels when I was 7. It started with all those "chapter books" but it quickly turned into literature soon after.</p>
<p>Yeah, I began my first novels around 6-7 too. I think 8 is normal but a little later than usual. However, reading Jane Eyre at 8 is just crazy.</p>
<p>I actually liked Pride and Prejudice...except for the sappy ending.</p>
