I love that I have all of the Bronte sisters' works on my Kindle in a single file. The table of contents makes everything conveniently accessible.
Needs improvement but suits my needsDecember 22, 2009 steve nikfar 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
As of mid Dec 2009 there is no active table of contents for each chapter of each book, just only one heading for each particular book.
All the poems are under just one entry, so it is impossible to look for a poem by its title or to tell which poem belongs to which of the family members. You can however search for a poem if you are familiar with any part of it.
I experienced sentence breakage in the middle of paragraphs for "Jane Eyre" but not the "Wuthering Heights" as stated by one other reviewer. You should expect to find as many of them as there are pages on a printed book. Let's say 400.
At the present time this edition has suited my needs and don't need to upgrade to a more expensive edition.
Poor formatting ruins great worksMarch 20, 2009 Nicole H.(WA State) 20 out of 22 found this review helpful
I wanted to read Jane Eyre and thought I was getting a good deal since I want to read Wuthering Heights at a later time. Although it is easy to navigate to specific works in the collection, the font is distracting and awkward to read for any length of time and the punctuation indistinct (the periods and commas are hard to tell apart). There is also random paragraph spacing in the middle of lines. I ended up buying another edition of Jane Eyre to finish reading the book.
