Wuthering Heights stank. Stinks. Stunk.

It was completely unbelievable, all about people destroying themselves for love. Catherine decides that she won't marry Heathcliff, but she has to destroy herself, Heathcliff and everyone around her to make up for her frustrated passion.

Urgh. Bleagh. Gag.

I loved wuthering heights. i love most of the old classics like that, and i think the brontes are definatly some of the most talented authors ever.

Elimear - I've read Jane Eyre. I think i liked that one even more than Wuthering Heights. Some of the places in it, like the school at the beginning, were based on her own experience and the school her and her sisters were sent to and the whole thing from start to finished was amazing.

if you liked Wuthering Heights you should definatly read Jane Eyre as well. they aren't easy reading or anything but definatly worth the effort. :D

*gasp* This is one of my most favorite books! EVER!

It's so refreshing from typical romance. Two horribly wicked people destroying everyone around them for love. Amazing!

Absolutely captivating.

I am constantly reading it. Haven't put it down since I bought it, which was quite some time ago.

TL...where is the romance in your soul?! :P No, actually I felt the same way when I first read it a few years ago, but earlier this year I decided to give it another try and found that I liked it a lot more than I had the first time.

Great book. Great movie. Period.

Dood, how did I only just now find this? O.o

Anyway, Wuthering Heights is pretty much one of my all time favorite books ever. One of the few that dad bought for me, and it hasn't left my side since.

I haven't seen the movie though...

I will probably love this book when I get around to reading it. I'm a sucker for a detailed plot and any type of love story.

I love this book! I think Heathcliff is one of the best villains in literature, and Catherine is just so awful! The story is kinda like watching a string of mistakes all weave togeather to form a revolting, but enjoyable pattern. This book is well worth the read!

I've never read Wuthering Heights, but I have read several of Emile Bronte's poems. I loved her poetry, so I am sure her book is good too!

I really did like Wuthering Heights. I found Joseph's accent incredibly annoying, however. It was very dark and tragic, but it definitely made you feel something. I actually preferred Jane Eyre (one of my all time favorite classics, so hard to beat) over Wuthering Heights, but it was still a good read.
