i sometimes find classics take so much concentration and willpower to read, but this had me hooked. it was incredible, and the more i read about it the more fascinating it becomes. it is a novel about passion, power and pain, a story within a story within a story, and it does not disappoint!! i don’t think it’s possible to summarise my thoughts without writing pages and pages.

I hate every character here, but the book is insanely good.

"may you not rest as long as I am living; you said I killed you—haunt me, then! be with me always—take any form—drive me mad! only do not leave me in this abyss, where I cannot find you! oh, god! it is unutterable! I cannot live without my life! I cannot live without my soul!"

Catherine and Heathcliff definitely have lots if undiagnosed mental health issues. Whoever told me this book was a romance story lied. It's almost unbearable at times.
