What does Jane Eyre tell us about Jane Eyre?

Jane Eyre is the first book we have read this semester with first person narration.  Jane is telling us her own story.  How does Jane describe herself?  What are the main influences on young life?  What experiences do you think we most formative to her character?  Frame your response in terms of the effectiveness of Bronte's narrative choices:  As a reader, what do you think of Jane thus far?  What moment(s) in the text have shaped this response?  As always, be sure to respond to relevant prior posts and use textual evidence to make your case.
