Jane: The Woman Who Loved Tarzan Audiobook

" Jane, darling, you are obviously incredibly intelligent, courageous, and insightful, and yet you turn to a mindless blob of jelly when a handsome, "virile" man pays attention to you. Seriously, authors, I'm tired of this hackneyed theme. Where are the women who grow to be strong and stay strong, even when a man enters the picture? I had such high hopes for this book, but I just couldn't finish it. "

" Though familiar with the Tarzan story from films, I have not read any of the Edgar Rice Burroughs stories. I believe I may have to remedy this situation. I thoroughly enjoyed this story from Jane Porter's perspective "

" It seemed a rather large coincidence that a "budding paleoanthropologist" just happens to run into Tarzan who is essentially raised in a group that would fit into the "missing link" category. I got a bit more than half way before putting this one down. It got a little too weird and unrealistic. Also, I skipped over a couple romance paragraphs that got into it a little more than my comfort zone (which also added to my decision to give up reading). Oh- and Jane is a little too heavy in the whole feminist thing in the beginning. "

" Kind of a meandering romance. I think any fun for fans of ERB is not there. "

" I am absolutely in love with this story! Jane is such a strong woman who holds her own in the jungles of Africa. The story is so richly drawn out that I almost couldn't put the book down while I was reading! Absolutely amazing read. "

" Great plot, really loved it and I hope she does another. "

" Loved this book. I hope other people will read it and enjoy as much as I did. "

" I really enjoyed this. The narrator for the audio book was a tad overly dramatic at times but I really liked the story. I kind of wonder if there will be another one. I feel like the author could if she wanted but not that it's absolutely necessary. "

" A little too much wild monkey-love for me. As I always say, I don't need to be in other peoples bedrooms/tree nests. "

" A fascinating concept and a neat reversal of the Tarzan story. Well written until the very end when it turned into an Indiana Jones tale. But if you like the idea of taking a famous story and telling it from a different viewpoint, then it's worth reading. "

" Until now I've never been interested in reading the original Tarzan. Now I want to. This is a fabulous retelling although the ending feels a bit rushed and sketchy. It leaves one with several questions. Does this mean there's a sequel? "

" I was utterly transfixed from start to finish - definitely one of the best books I read this year. Jane and Tarzan are a great couple! "

" Great remix of tarzan, didnt think i would like it this much "
