unconvincingcouple

Lolita | Vladimir Nabokov

It took me all day to think about this one. But I've finally settled on Lo and Clare Quilty as an #unconvincingcouple #BookLove17

the.bookish.valkyrie Good pick! They really are a terrible match! 8y

readinginthedark Yeah...that seems more like a circumstantial, prom king/queen style thing. 8y

RadicalReader @Minispok I love how gorgeous Shanlee Woodly is I remember her vividly from the wonderful film adaption of Fault in Our Stars excellent film and equally excellent book. 8y

Jane Eyre | Charlotte Brontė

Okay this might be an unpopular opinion, but here it goes - I think Jane and Rochester are an #unconvincingcouple. I mean, it doesn't even seem like the man like her most of the time, he is selfish, and only when he has nothing left is Jane good enough for him. I loved the book, but I never understood why Jane loves Rochester.

respekt1111 I was always trying to convince myself that Rochester wasn't really a jerk, but he is. You nailed it š‘¨ 8y

CherylDeFranceschi I can totally see that. 8y

raeintheworld You should read Re Jane. It's a modern retelling with a more convincing ending. 8y

MeganAnn I feel the same way! š‘¨š¸»š‘¸š¸» 8y

Kalalalatja @Bookworm54 @respekt1111 @CherylDeFranceschi @MeganAnn I am so glad I am not the only one! 8y

Kalalalatja @raeintheworld is that the one were Jane is a Korean girl? I have heard about it, but had actually fogotten it until now! 8y

moranadatter It may be unpopular, but I'm with you. 8y

raeintheworld @Kalalalatja Yes. There are some really cool examinations of language as well as being the multi cultural other, but I really liked that it took the relationship between Jane and Rochester to task. 8y

Kalalalatja @raeintheworld sounds awesome! I will put it on my tbr š‘¨ 8y
