  • How many? Dozens but the book is best of course.
    It's a classic love story, a coming of age story, a exploration of morality, of the wrangles between conscience and passion, of gender relations etc. Every woman secretly wants to find their Mr. Rochester think.
    But that's just my take on it. :)

    I thought everyone just wanted to not have to deal with the classic love story because it's all a bit too much of a cliché. I also assumed that the whole coming of age thing was mythical and that explorations of morality happened at school disco's or in pub car parks. The wrangles between conscience and passion don't exist out in reality, but are pointlessly maintained by epically awful books like this one. In all honesty, I think every woman just wants a nice genuine bloke.

    Can't you tell that I had to do this for GCSE English?
