5.0
The characters are deeply flawed and unloveable, and that is what makes this book so compelling. If you are looking for a love story, this will likely disappoint you — it’s more about how the actions and selfishness of Heathcliff and Catherine affect those around them well into the next generation. There is such depth and a lot to unpack regarding human nature here. This book was not what I anticipated, but I adore it now.
