So I thought I'd go all classic for a change and try a Bronte sister out.
Wuthering Heights tells the story of the troubled Earnshaw clan and the misfit boy Heathcliff they bring into their fold. It's also a song by Kate Bush which is a classic in another way.
It's a classic yes, but by God is this a depressing book. I got really into it and really attached to some of the characters, mostly Nelly and Hareton, and then I just had to sit and read as their lives got worse and worse and then somehow even worse. It's horrible. Just depressing.
But while I say that I did kind of enjoy reading it. It was really nice to curl up in bed take a glance at the frost outside and delve into a big ol' lump of classic.
So yeah not a cheerful book but a great book to curl up with on a winter morning.
