miss emily girl you so crazyyyyyy why would you write “the entire world is a dreadful collection of memoranda that she did exist and that i have lost her”
I first read this when I was about 14; it was a book that my friends and I passed around in the summer for entertainment reading--just goes to show how times have changed. It holds up well; I don't like it nearly as much as Jane Eyre, but there's a lot to think and talk about.

I like reading classics but I don’t really get the appeal of this one. People who live to make each other miserable. Breaking out of your proper social class leads to misery for everyone involved. Am I missing some redeeming quality?

Where to begin? Wuthering heights is a fever dream. Both during and after reading I was left questioning out loud, what have I just read?! I have found myself delaying writing this review because on the one hand, who am I to critique Emily Brontë and such a beloved classic, but on the other hand was this book just lost on me? I started off completely gripped and loved the narration within a narration format, and then it all just went… strange. How are people seemingly dropping dead of an argument? Why do I not like ANY of the characters? How in the hell has this ever been portrayed as a love story? What is going on??!!!!!This review is full of questions, and that is all this novel left me with. Perhaps I need to read it again as I have been left bamboozled by Ms Brontë.

I was enjoying it a fair bit for the first half or so but it really lost me beyond that point. Really tried to like it more but there just wasn't much for me to latch onto
