1. Jane Eyre. Just wonderful in every way, and I maintain that whomever started HG/SS shipping had to have been a fan of this book. I won't say why because it would be a spoiler fo ... |

What is your basis for your accusation of plagiarism? I see no reason to assume she stole the idea from something verboten. It reminds me of Malfoy in book one talking about "narrowly escaping mu ... |
