As it turns out, Agnes Grey seems to be a more depressing version of Jane Eyre and without the romantic bits. Not good. Well, it actually is very good. I am only about 30-50 pages in and have already gotten very worked up and emotional over some very annoying children and the hardships little Agnes has thus faced.
The thing is, I live off Romantic Bits. But nothing in Agnes Grey even seems to resemble Romance. No Mr. Rochester, not a Darcy in site (I don't even give a shit about Heathcliffe so let's not mention that fugfaced scoundrel. Oop, just did).
I don't know if I can go on.
I shall try a little longer because, hey, I spent $3.99 on that book. Speaking of those $3.99 books, can people please start buying them from the Co-op so they start getting new ones in? I'm tired of seeing the Moonstone and Vanity Fair over and over again. Also, they're all dented so I can't buy them. But speaking of the Moonstone, I finished that a couple of weeks ago and folks, it was a thrilling ride. I denied myself the masochistic pleasure of reading the spoilers online (as I usually do) and actually found out who stole the moonstone when it was revealed in the book. That part was a little anticlimactic but the rest of the book was really good!
