I've read Tolkien, and I've read lots of what you might call "generic fantasy" (so, Tolkien knockoffs).

Nothing ever came close.

Penguin Classics Jane Eyre

I love that book so very much, and it is the prettiest I own. I wanted so much to get one of these, but you can't really get them in my country. You can, but only one shop sells them and they are quite expensive for a book (because they are imported + expencive in comparison to average income) and there was a very limited selection.

But my mom gifted it to me!
