There's so much more to this, particularly in that every character crafted by Brontë is so full of emotion and motivation, so repulsive and yet so sympathetic. Completely in tune with the human experience.

The relationship between Heathcliff and Cathrine is an obsession, a passion, a math between two characters who are monstruos, but not LOVE!
Think about something like "they match each other's freak" but the freak here is there selfishness, monstrosity etc...

Starting from old Mr. Earnshaw to young Catherine and Edgar, the characters felt immature, entitled, rich, inhuman beings. If Nelly just stopped meddling with everything, this book wouldn'have been so annoying and most of the conflict and plot wouldn't be there. And if the characters just stopped to think for a second about their actions and the consequences, everything would've been easier. I understand that this is intentional and this is how a reader is meant to feel about those characters and to be conflicted with them, not knowing either to sympathize or hate them, which creates this frustration and engagement with the characters, but I don't like annoying literature. I don't mind reading about immoral characters or their inhuman actions and cold manner, but annoying characters are not my cup of tea.
That being said, this book had strong relationships, definitely toxic, hard emotions and obsession in a raw way. Emily's writing is definitely beautiful and immersive and the isolation she created, how the characters lived so far away from civilization created this air about the story making it feel mystical and eerie and adding to the charm of the setting. He character building and progression is so good and there's a bit of mystery to it, and most of it revolves around Heathcliff, which adds to his character a darker aura, him being this secretive character that we don't understand and all we know about him for sure throughout the book is his dark, vengeance-seeking soul and his obsession with Catherine and the men around her and destroying their lives, and how he died was so fitting. The ending was good.
Dark, cold and toxic.
