She different from the women of that age, who put all their efforts after marrying men of fortune and producing heir.
Throughout her journey and choices she made, I see her as resilient girl complying by the rules of the school and learnt good skills. She shaped her life despite abandoned by her aunt.
Meanwhile she hooked up in sexual romances and her deep desire to find a lover made her taking up such adventures.
Later, when she took up job assignment as a full time teacher for a kid she found herself a well dignified position. But her love life was dry and barren until she met Mr Rochester. Jane’s insecurities were put to rest when Mr Rochester chose her over pretty, fashionable and rich women of the town.

In short, I can't pick one. That's too hard. I'll just keep loving them both.

People who read are hiders. They hide who they are. People who hide don't always like who they are.

The reason I love Pride and Prejudice much more is because it has this ability to bring you into the book as though you were sitting right there at the Bennetts' table. I have read it probably 5 times now and whenever I am feeling down I know I can grab that book and almost immediately feel better.

But as mentioned below (or above) it depends of what you're in the mood for. I can relate to Jane Eyre because I read it at a very young age. It's subtle images of self sacrifice never faded away, even with the scrutiny you give to classics once you're old enough. Elizabeth may be too smart for me and real speech is never so clever (or is it?).
