I couldn't finish it. The last ten chapters were "sparknoted."
Yes, the book was that horrible.
I'm already not a big fan of Victorian-era writing. Even when I was little and was obsessed with American Girl Dolls, Samantha (the Victorian one) was my least favorite. Wuthering Heights increased my hatred for all things Victorian. You think Chick-Lit is petty and stupid? Just read a Bronte or an Austen...
It's a story of hatred disguised as love. It's a story that's supposed to have all these wonderful themes to read in between the lines about in AP English...
I know this isn't a real review. This is just me urging you to please skip this one. You'll thank me.
(I recently read a much better hate review on Wuthering Heights but can't manage to find it. If you've reviewd it, leave a comment with a link!)

One day, girl. One day. I hated Austen in high school, but when I read it several years later, I "got" it. I appreciate this type of reading SO much more now than I did then.
