Well, I just finished my latest reread of Jane Eyre, and I don’t know what to do with myself! After reading it I often lapse into a “book hangover” because it is truly the best book in my opinion. I’ve read a lot of connected things, but I’m wondering if anyone has other book recommendations that are either fiction or non fiction?
Here’s a list of what I have read that’s connected:
Everything by all 3 of the Brontë sisters
The Brontës: Wild Genius on the Moores
Elizabeth Gaskell’s biography
The Eyre Affair
The Brontë Cabinet
The Secret History of Jane Eyre
The Brontësaurus
I thought I might try Glass Town now, it looks interesting. Also I have heard of some mysteries/romances that are set in the Jane Eyre universe and I’m open to trying one if it’s good. Thanks for your help!

IIRC (and it has been several years since I read it, so forgive me), The Woman in White by Wilkie Collins has a gothic literature feel much like Jane Eyre.
The Wife Upstairs by Rachel Hawkins is a thriller retelling of Jane Eyre
There are a ton of modern adaptations!
