I started reading this book thinking it would be this strong romance between these two forbidden lovers, but is was anything but that, I found it a very intense dark book but that is exactly what made it good.
Spoiler
Heathcliff was this very violent, angry and hurt character I feel like the way he was treated as a child really ruined him, even when he was with Cathtrine he would hurt her.Spoiler
the characters troughout the book you really get to know them and their personality traits, there a some characters I really hoped that they would make it trough. this books touches on subjects such as child abuse, death and trauma. even though it was a quite a heavy book is was brilliantly written, I am definitely going to reread it and recommend it to other people because it leaves you thinking on certain subjects.
