Within These Wicked Walls

The description of a fantasy Jane Eyre retelling is accurate. You can see the bones of Jane Eyre with some fabulous additions. I really loved the way that the female characters are given more agency and power in this story. The parental tragedies of Jane Eyre are there, but there is a little more hope infused in there. I loved the horror parts with the Manifestations. There is not a total answer wrapped up in a bow, which leaves me thinking about the story. The twist was a surprise that I didn't see coming, but is perfect. This is a fabulous book,
