This book takes revenge story to an entirely different level.
Loved the setting of the moors, it often matched the tone of the book. Sometimes dark and unsettling, other times vibrant and alive.
The characters are truly fascinating. They can be unlikeable, but I do love books with unlikeable characters, especially when they are as deep and complex as many are in Wuthering Heights.
It feels like a book I'm going to be thinking about for a long time.

I don’t care for Nelly. (lost my copy for a month btw)
Not really sure what to say about this one. I really enjoyed it but also fully under why people wouldn’t. I think the way the story was told as story from Ellen made it feel a mix between fast and slow paced. It was satisfying seeing her story reach present time.

I believe there are a lot of different opinions on this book. Sone say it is great some say it is one of the worst books. In my opinion it was neither. While I have to say that I enjoyed the narrative or rather the way this story was told in general I must say the story line itsself was not as captivating as I hoped it to be. As already mentioned the way the whole story was uncovered bit after bit, starting with the very beginnings 20 years before this book is actually set I thought it to be quite fascinating. Of course the main aspect of this book was romance but there was so much more to it. I must say the characters however were almost all rather unlikable. Overall it was still a good book and i enjoyed the read but I must admit that it certainly is not something for everyone.
Peculiar story, very different than I had expected (some romantic fling). Fascinating, especially the last part I've read in one go. Better than Jane Eyre IMO. Good ending too. Not very poetically described, and characters sometimes a bit flat. 4½ stars.
They can never make me like u heathcliff …. unforgiveness really turns people into ugly creatures huh
also somehow i’ve learnt to decipher joseph’s speech towards the end n i count that as a small win!

“Cime tempestose” è il primo dei classici che mi sono promessa di recuperare in questo anno e l’ho trovato bellissimo. È la storia di personaggi a dir poco mostruosi, narcisisti, egoisti e più si procede con la storia più emerge l’inclinazione alla violenza e alla cattiveria di ognuno di loro. È un libro estremamente godibile sia per tematiche (figlio del suo tempo, sono evidenti gli influssi della letteratura gotica) sia per lo stile: è estremamente moderno nel linguaggio e questo rende facile l’immersione nella lettura! Consiglio moltissimo questo libro a chi come me, sciaguratamente, non lo ha ancora letto.
