Jane Eyre? Stephenie Meyer thinks Bella is similar to Jane motherfucking Eyre? *gnashes teeth* Look, Jane Eyre is a fantastic character -- she's got flaws and everything. Bella? Bella is a one-dimensional biscuit person. She looks all solid on the outside, but then you bite into her and she's flaky.
When Jane's Edward got all weird and the weird stuff he pulled on her was revealed (Edward "Secret Crazy" Rochester vs. Edward "im in ur room, watchin u sleep" Cullen), Jane got the hell out of there. And then Jane encounters The Perfect Victorian GentlemanTM and she realizes she can't love him. Edward Cullen is a super-creepy St. John. Edward Cullen is not Edward Rochester.
Oh, god. I feel like a fantastic book has been raped.
