The passion that Emily Bronte was able to write is insane. Heathcliff is so detestable but I want to give him a hug. I can see why it's a classic romance and it gave us some iconic lines.
Because it is 19th century literature (and my first time reading from that century) it was a little difficult to get through. It was also often difficult to tell whose POV we were reading at some points.
I know it's fairly normal for this time but why is there so much incest?!?!
