I had no problem reading through jane eyre by another bronte. and all other works by salinger. weird. Title: Re: New Wuthering Heights on Masterpiece Classic is brilliant!

... But I bet that you don't just read it the once. I finished Wuthering Heights, more than likely chiefly because I had to study it. I doubt that I would have got all the the way through it (I never finished Jane Eyre) otherwise. But it is a good book. Title: Re: New Wuthering Heights on Masterpiece Classic is brilliant! Post by: Axl4Prez2004 on January 19, 2009, 06:58:00 PM ^ ppbebe is confirming my theory that Catcher in the Rye is a dude's book. Honestly, I don't have a single male friend that couldn't identify with that asshole Holden. The ladies I know, not so much. Just my 2 cents.

But it is a good book. hehehe the jane eyre I had was an abridged version for kids. so was wuthering height and with all the pretty pictures, yea cj, I remember, every character at the first several pages or so seemed nasty. axl4prez, I don't hate holden but I think I found the story rather dull. I will conquer catcher in the rye (one day). :yes: Title: Re: New Wuthering Heights on Masterpiece Classic is brilliant! Post by: y2marmar on January 20, 2009, 05:13:03 PM I love the book. Love it. Its the best love story I've ever read. I just love it.
