Table of ContentsReviews"""A sinister gothic romance revamped."" — Kirkus Reviews" """In the immersive world of McKinney’s Thornfield Hall, Jane and Bertha are thoroughly vivid and compelling. A deeply satisfying companion and a highly accessible entry point for a contemporary audience [...] L. L. McKinney breathes new life into a well-worn tale, and the novel's originality shines brightly, yielding surprises for those familiar with Brontë’s version or not."" — Booklist (starred review) ""Thrilling, compulsively readable novel."" — Publishers Weekly (starred review) ""A sinister gothic romance revamped."" — Kirkus Reviews ""Shared narration between Jane and Bertha separates this from its inspiration, allowing Bertha to be a richly developed character, and her growing romantic relationship with Jane provides a lovely ray of light in an otherwise (appropriately) dark story. McKinney successfully deploys Gothic tropes to make Thornfield Hall utterly menacing while maximizing the tension of its oppressive atmosphere."" — Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books “McKinney breathes new life into a much-loved tale.” — Bethany C.
