Yeah, I read Villette way the heck back there, although I hardly remember it. I do remember I was never much impressed by Charlotte Bronte, though. "Wuthering Heights," of course, is one of the most romantic novels out there, proving that Emily was brilliant in that sense -- very poetic, you know? But Anne Bronte was my favorite: "The Tenant of Wildfell Hall" is very, very high on my list of all time favorites, as is "Agnes Grey." Have you read either?
Maybe I should reread "Villette" sometime soon, see what I think now? I did reread "Tenant" not too long ago... Right before I read "Anthony Adverse" -- talk about a lifetime's work! lol I think it was what? 1250 pages?
