Manga Classics: Jane Eyre by Stacy KingMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Wow. I'm pleasantly surprised.
I read Jane Eyre several years ago, and I enjoyed it. It wasn't my favorite classic of all time, but I enjoyed reading it and could understand the importance of in in history.
I'm totally shocked that they were able to break down the classic into a well-read manga. I don't know if I would go so far as to say that you would be able to read this instead of the classic for a class test/essay, but, the manga classic gets almost everything right and succeeds in making the story enjoyable.
Also, something that was really cool, was at the end, there were extras: information about the drawings, the time period, etc. which added to the enjoyment.
Overall, I'm really impressed. But, maybe read the classic first, because it would be hard to read after.
