Historia
Part history, part true-crime, and entirely entertaining, listen to the story of how the behemoth Oxford English Dictionary was made. You'll hang on every word as you discover that the dictionary's greatest contributor was also an insane murderer working from the confines of an asylum.

I thoroughly enjoyed this history of the creation of the Oxford English Dictionary. I'm kicking myself for letting go of my two volume set only a few weeks ago!!

I persevered to the end and I'm glad that I did. This is definitely a book for people who understand computers and math, which is not my strong suit. However, what i could understand was very interesting and gave me many points to think about regarding human interactions.

Historia
Following Jane from her childhood as an orphan in Northern England through her experience as a governess at Thornfield Hall, Charlotte Brontë's Gothic classic is an early exploration of women's independence in the mid-19th century and the pervasive societal challenges women had to endure. At Thornfield, Jane meets the complex and mysterious Mr. Rochester, with whom she shares a complicated relationship that ultimately forces her to reconcile the conflicting passions of romantic love and religious piety.

Jane Eyre is my favorite book, and I have read it MANY times. I have never heard it read until now, and I'm so glad I chose this version! Thandie Newton brought this to life in the best way possible, and I fell in love with Jane Eyre all over again! Loved it!!
