i'll admit that deadlines for school made me read this too fast to actually enjoy it. the writing was gorgeous, but i just didn't have enough time with it to analyze it. and the drama was interesting at the beginning, but to me it turned into an over-the-top telenovela that just wasn't doing it for me.

4.5 stars rounded up. I was enamored by the toxic relationships between these characters--truly every single one is a TERRIBLE human being, yet I was completely invested in their lives. Emily Bronte is a master at creating atmosphere, and this book contained some of the most beautiful passages I have ever read. I know I will revisit this story in the future.

Words cannot describe how deeply I loved reading this. Its story and imagery are so hauntingly beautiful and totally sparked my love for the gothic genre. This book is far too complicated and nuanced for me to possibly review it so plainly, but luckily for the lackluster review I'm posting here, I've discussed this book heavily for hours within my English class to make up for it. I cannot recommend this enough, especially to those who love tragedy and romance. Bronte is magnificent at her dialogue and narrative; you're following horrible, corrupt people, and still manage to pity them and understand their sorrow to a point where you feel passionately about them. Not only that, but there are so many layers in Wuthering Heights: Nelly's POV, Lockwood's perception of the families, and of course the generations of family trauma. Seriously, if you're looking for a book to change your life and completely reinvent the way you read stories, I think this is for you. That sounds dramatic, but then again, this book is!
