Vulture interviews Jeopardy! host Alex Trebek.
What are you reading these days?The Russia Hoax by Gregg Jarrett. I’m only up to page 49, but he’s so biased in his approach. James Comey’s A Higher Loyalty; Amy Siskind’s The List. I just finished The Apprentice, Greg Miller. I started Michael McFaul’s book, From Cold War to Hot Peace. I read a little of everything. Talking to My Daughter About the Economy. That was a fun one. The Brontës — all about that marvelous family. (David Marchese)PopSugar looks at the '30 Books With More Than 1 Million Reviews on Goodreads', including
15 Jane Eyre
Jane Eyre, by Charlotte Bronte, lives right in between the bright rom-com tone of Jane Austen's novels and the Gothic despair of Wuthering Heights. The novel is narrated by its heroine, Jane Eyre, an orphan despised by her extended family who grows up to be a quiet but clever young teacher. When she takes a post as governess to a wealthy little girl, she finds herself drawn to the brooding, blunt master of the house, Mr. Rochester. He's attracted to her too — but he's got a few secrets of his own. (Amanda Prahl)
The Atlantic features writer Anna Todd:
Todd was 24 years old and living near Fort Hood, Texas, with her husband, a soldier she had married a month after graduating high school, and their newborn, who suffered daily seizures. While caring for her son and taking online community-college courses, she helped support the family by babysitting for a neighbor and working the beauty counter at Ulta. For fun, she read. Wuthering Heights, Twilight, The Things They Carried. (John Cuneo)Express Lively gives 5 reasons why 'Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë is A Brilliant Classic'.
