Most of the other characters even the narrator(s) are deeply flawed human beings.
I think the most "likable" are probably Catherine II and Hareton.
In oder to really appreciate this book, I recommend doing a bit of research on it first and listing to other people's thoughts on the book. I'm probably going to give this a higher rating after I reread it.
“He shall never know I love him: and that, not because he’s handsome, but because he’s more myself than I am. Whatever our souls are made out of, his and mine are the same.”
“If all else perished, and he remained, I should still continue to be; and if all else remained, and he were annihilated, the universe would turn to a mighty stranger.”
“I have not broken your heart – you have broken it; and in breaking it, you have broken mine.”
“I’m wearying to escape into that glorious world, and to be always there: not seeing it dimly through tears, and yearning for it through the walls of an aching heart: but really with it, and in it."
“It was not the thorn bending to the honeysuckles, but the honeysuckles embracing the thorn.”
“I have to remind myself to breathe – almost to remind my heart to beat!”
“Treachery and violence are spears pointed at both ends; they wound those who resort to them worse than their enemies.”
