LOVED IT! I have to say I am so glad I gave this book a chance. In the past, I never had an interest or patience to read books in that "old English" type language, if you know what I mean. It just seemed that it would be too much hard work and I just wouldn't "get it". But I was wrong. Give me a good book and a good story and I get lost in it. Well, to my surprise and delight, that's what happened with Wuthering Heights. Emily Bronte certainly has a way with words and she certainly can tell a story, and what a story it was. The main characters, Catherine and Heathcliff are your classic characters that you love to hate, and at the same time you are so compelled by them. They are so self absorbed, yet you feel for them because you know what they've been through. Anyway, again, I am so glad I gave this book a chance because I ended up loving it.
