5.0

What a journey! A good-faith, but unthorough, effort by one kind-hearted person rippled cruelty for three generations, all presided over by a Bible thumper servant. 

Everyone in this book needs therapy, a Warmie, and a new book they've never read before.

riverofhorton's review against another edition

This book is incredibly violent, with every kind of toxic relationship and abuse you can think of, with the kind of casual racism and misogyny that I have at this point come to expect from 19th Century fiction. That said, I may well return to this book at a later date, since there were a few scenes that I found to be quite thrilling, and I do find myself invested in the characters and their development. Right now just isn't the right time for me to be reading a book with this amount of violence.

Definitely not a love story, but perhaps an interesting revenge story. Every character in this book is deeply flawed and most are toxic. Heathcliff is over the top dramatic and very annoying.
There’s very little moral or theme to this story beyond revenge. Anyone who says that it is a great love story between Heathcliff and Catherine must be deluded or only know toxic relationships. If anything Edgar loves Catherine better and is more devoted as to give up his desires for hers.
The books seems to drag on and on, especially since the reader has already been told what is going to happen in the second half from the first few chapters of Lockwood visiting Heathcliff.

Holy fucking shit this nocked my socks off! The prose are phenomenal & moving. Not bad for a virgin with no friends who died at 30 from TB 5🪦

Joanne Froggatt also fucking slayed the audiobook 5🪦

NB Nelly doesn’t get paid enough to deal with all the BS from the Lintons + Earnshaws - get a better employer girl!
