"Jane Eyre" . Charlotte Bronte

      I read C. Bronte's "Jane Eyre". This book's publisher is Pearson Education Limited in association with Penguin Books Ltd. Reading level is 5 and number of pages is 152.
      This book tells a story of an orphan girl named Jane. She is living with her cruel aunt and her children with who she doesn't get along with. She is unhappy and miserable. Fortunately she is sent to Lowood school, where she is willing to go just to get away from her aunt. Jane has some difficulties at the beginning in new school, but she makes friends with Helen Burns and starts to enjoy studies. She likes there quite well and she gets along with the school's head teacher, too. During the school-years unfortunately her close friend Helen dies. Then after few years Miss Temple also leaves Lowood. Since Jane has grown-up she wants to experience something new. She gets a permission to leave Lowood behind and go to Thornfield to become a governess there. But in Thornfield, after meeting Mr Rochester, happens something new for Jane...
      Although this book was quite sad and miserable at some points, it was still very good. I'd definitely recommend it to everyone. Here's some words that were new to me:
murmur- sumin
anxiety- rahutus
deceitful- valelik
obedience- kuulekus
hollow- kume;õõnes
urge- aje;tung
clergyman- kirikuõpetaja
firmly- kindlalt
scorn- põlgama
plainness- lihtsus
