I read this book two August's ago in Point Pleasant Park on a warm afternoon. In hindsight, this was the perfect way to read this book.
Filled with melancholy and tragedy, Wuthering Heights is a good read. Brontë writes in such a way that puts you in the middle of the story and allows you to live alongside her characters with vivid descriptions. As any story of love and lost, Wuthering Heights pulls at your emotions.
I rate this book a 7 out of 10. Wuthering Heights was enjoyable and easy to read, but still not one of my favourite books as most books that I rate higher end up being. I think rereading it again in another few years may be a good idea as I'm sure I'd get more out of it from a second reading. As for recommending the book, I find that rather difficult as, with most classics, I believe that everyone should read them as they wouldn't have gained the classification as a classic if there wasn't some sort of inherent value to the story or the writing. Because of this, I will recommend the book to anyone who hasn't read it, in particular people who are going through a rough time in their life and want a brief escape into a wonderfully woven fiction.
