I'm trying to read more of their works as well :) I loved Wuthering Heights - such a great story. Dark and brooding indeed!<br /><br />Nicola, keep an eye - its such a worthwhile read. That is interesting. I'm not sure what it is about JE that I just don't like, but I'm thinking it could be my love for Wide Sargasso Sea. I just prefer Jean Rhys' take on Rochester and Bertha more than the original.

It's the other way around for me!Vintage Readinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05971819409379613967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7892722103504759154.post-26952972738004026742016-04-01T15:04:23.275-04:002016-04-01T15:04:23.275-04:00I almost purchased this at the bookstore yesterday...I almost purchased this at the bookstore yesterday! I'm trying to read more of the Brontës, in general, right now, so I think this would be a great companion piece. I've actually only read Charlotte's Jane Eyre, which I really loved, and am currently working on Emily's Wuthering Heights (for the first time). Talk about characters the reader is sure to loathe-- Heathcliff and Cathy are insufferable! I'm still enjoying it though--so dark and brooding. I'll have to find this at the library ASAP. Thanks for sharing!
