Some of the fears I acquired were due to prevailing gossips and unfounded tales talked about by the people who were close to me - friends‚ cousins and my parents.

I enjoyed reading Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston‚ though it isn’t something that I would normally choose to read. I found the second half of the book especially interesting‚ and as I read on‚ the dialect became less distracting from the story. At the end of the book‚ Pheobe envies Janie for the life she has led‚ even though it was filled with heartache. Pheobe‚ on the other hand‚ remained safe and within the acceptable standards of society‚ but wasn’t happy with her decision.

The the novel "Their eyes are watching God" by Zora Neale Hurston. Janie was the main character. She was so simlar to Jane from "Jane Erye" by Charlotte Bronte.
