It fell open at a pivotal scene, the one where Jane meets Mr. Rochester for the first time, startling his horse in the woods and causing him to fall. Pilot is there too, the handsome, soulful-eyed hound. If the book has one failing, it's that there is insufficient mention of Pilot. You can't have too much dog in a book.

The story captures a key moment in "Jane Eyre" when Jane first encounters Mr. Rochester, an event that leads to a rather dramatic fall. This scene is memorable not only for its romantic tension but also for the presence of Pilot, Rochester's striking dog. The author expresses a desire for more emphasis on this canine character throughout the narrative.

The mention of Pilot highlights a common sentiment among readers who appreciate the role that pets can play in literature. While the focus remains on the human characters and their development, the absence of more interactions or descriptions involving Pilot feels like a missed opportunity to enrich the story further.
