Jane Eyre Giveaway

 

You may have heard me mention (once or twice, at least) that Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre is one of my all-time favorite books.  So you can imagine how excited I am about the new adaptation of the book that's now in theaters, starring Mia Wasikowska (she of Alice in Wonderland) and Michael Fassbender (he of Inglorious Basterds) as Jane and  Edward Rochester.  Focus Features is sponsoring a giveaway to promote the film and I'm delighted to be able to offer one of my readers the opportunity to win the following:

* Soundtrack sampler
* Bookmark
* Journal
* Pencil
* Copy of the book (the movie tie-in edition)

How about twittering with Charlotte Bronte?  Check out this Twitter Lib to make your own version of some of Charlotte's famous quotes:



There was a video in this post when I put it together; no idea what happened to it.  To see a preview of the movie, click on this link.
I'm joining my sister this weekend to support my niece who's prom royalty.  I think the price for driving her across town and back will be that she's going to have to go the this movie with me!

UPDATE: My sister is off the hook--my entire book club is excited to go see this movie so I'm going to line up a girls night out.

    How wonderful! I twittered and facebooked. I don't think we can ever possibly have enough Jane Eyre in our lives. Nor nearly enough Emma.

    Oh yes...please enter me! I really want to see the movie too, but it's looking like I may have to wait for the DVD. Although I really LOVE Michael Fassbender. I watched a movie he was in today called Centurion. He is truly dreamy!

    Thanks for the chance!
