Wuthering Heights

Emily Bronte (1818-1848) – This story shocked me quite a bit. I picked it up thinking it would be similar to Jane Austin. It’s set in a similar time period and it would make sense. But to my surprise it’s a very dark tale with a lot of angry people. I don’t like how it ends up. There is death and murder and it’s just dark. The whole time I was reading it I was angry at the characters and I wanted them to get along. There was a lot of arguing and fighting and vengeance. It just wasn’t the type of story that I like to read. I did get through it because I was curious about how it would go. (Late 1700s)
