I would actually describe it as the original Forest Gump in that it's just one person's life story as they go through all different stages and meet new people. So far there's no real story arc as such, just a series of events that vaguely link.
Jane Eyre is one of my favourite books of all time. I read Wide Sargasso Sea as reccommended to me by a friend-I didn't much care for it and only stuck it through as Its the supposed prequel. Can't you put them both away and read Rebecca instead? x
