I always thought Jane Eyre was one of the few books that actually show true love, rather than lust or shared interest.

I'm sorry, but who in their right mind thinks that a girl getting raped on top of Stonehenge is a "romantic novel"??

The rape is up for interpretation, and it was not at Stonehenge. Read the book.

There is more to Tess other than the rape scene. Which unfortunately isn't very fappable.

The second half with her and that other dude is a pretty good love story with a baawwtacular end.
