She begins a romance with Eddie Rochestor, a widow in the Estates. Jane wants to be rich, but also secure and respected. ![]() She tells the reader (Jane narrates in first person, present tense) very early that Jane is not her real name. She has a bit of a kleptomania problem and a desperate need to erase her past. In this contemporary take off on Jane Eyre, Jane is a dog walker for people in the rich neighborhood of Thornfield Estates. The Wife Upstairs is not a romance novel, that’s for sure, and it’s not lyrically written, but it has a masterful grasp of character and plotting and it zips right along as any good thriller should, leaving the reader madly turning pages instead of, say, emptying the dishwasher is which what I should have been doing while I finished the book instead. ![]() The Wife Upstairs is hard to review because how it works on its own and as an adaptation depends on the many twists that unfold throughout the book. I wrote a short book called Pride Prejudice and Popcorn: TV and Film Adaptations of Pride and Prejudice, Wuthering Heights, and Jane Eyre, in which I concluded that any adaption can work as long as it stays true to the themes and characters of the source material.

This technique stands in contrast to perfect rhyme, which occurs when two words either have the same ending ("cave" and "save") or sound the same despite different spelling ("fly" and "high"). ![]() Examples of this type of rhyme can be found between the words "shape" and "leap" or "warm" and "torn." This term is dealing with situations where two words are on the edge of a perfect rhyme but fall short, containing only some partial consonance. This effect is usually achieved when two words have the same consonants but different vowels, but can also occur in the reverse circumstance (same vowels, different consonants). Slant rhyme, also known as half rhyme or imperfect rhyme, refers to instances where two words sound alike but do not have the same endings. ![]() Where the Staircase Ends by Stacy Stokes6/28/2023 ![]() ![]() This year, I only had two classes with Sunny, and so far things were playing out exactly as my nightmares predicted. We’d stack our bags and notebooks on the empty chairs around us until we’d decided who we wanted to sit by. Last year, Sunny and I sat in the back row whenever there wasn’t assigned seating. I looked at the other kids milling around the classroom, their eyes flicking toward the door like they were waiting for someone. I stared at the door to my classroom, shaking my head in confusion. But why did I feel like I was just someplace else? I was exactly where I was supposed to be. It was the first day of school, first period. Wasn’t I … what? My mind grappled for the answer but couldn’t find one. Instead, I was wearing jeans and my favorite blouse, the one my mom hated because, well, she pretty much hated anything that I liked.
