RE: Diving into the Abyss of Wuthering Heights | Book Review

Wuthering Heights sounds like a book that can really stir up some emotions. I'm glad to hear you found some positives in the end with Cathy 2 and Hareton. As for the other characters, they were quite frustrating, right? But I am sure that is what makes the book so interesting. It's like a love-hate relationship, just like the one you have with the book itself.

And let's not forget about Heathcliff, the demonic character that you could not help but be drawn to. Emily Brontë really did a great job with him. I mean, who wouldn't want to tear the book apart in moments of fury?

But in the end, we can appreciate the masterful storytelling and the haunting atmosphere she created. Thank you for sharing

Believe me, it's hard to sympathize with some characters, their sanity becomes so toxic that they destroy everything around them including themselves. All for the sake of love, but more like obsession. Experiences shape us, especially those from childhood. And those who have no mental strength to absorb and transform it end up morphing into vicious entities. But it's still a great book if you don't mind the tragic aspects of it. :)
