5+ stars. I adore Jane Eyre. Reading it is perfect in every way. Treasure!!!!!

Whatever our souls are made of..His n mine are the same..

I liked Wuthering Heights twice as much as I probably should have and liked Jane Eyre half as much as it probably deserved

This was the kindle version, Loved Jane Eyre, didn't love wuthering heights.

Jane Eyre is my favourite of all the Bronte books!!

I am only halfway through Wuthering Heights, but I already have so much to say that I have to come and write down all my thoughts before I forget them.Wuthering Heights by Emily BronteThere are some things I like about this book, and there are some things that I really hate about this book. The following are simply a few of my thoughts:I'll admit, when I started reading, I didn't have a clue what was going on, or who the narrator was. Last night, I ended up re-reading the first 50 pages of the b...

I found Wuthering Heights to be a dismal story. I felt sorry for all the characters in the story who had to meet Heathcliff, knowing that something tragic would happen to them when he got them under his thumb. At first I also felt sorry for Heathcliff, but later ended up despising him. I guess that is why the book it is such a classic. The storytelling is wonderful and I didn't want to stop reading until something good happened, which took a while. The ending was the one redeeming part of the st...

So, I´ve re-read Wuthering Heights in this Anniversary Year for Emily Brontë (she was born in 1818)...although most of the people described in the book are not exactly the most cheerful, nor sympathetic characters, the story (oh, that passion!) still keeps up, and what to say about the landscape of the Yorkshire Moors, so present in this book! In 1991, during my first stay in West-Yorkshire, I ventured to Haworth (had a ride in the Worth Valley Railway, a steam train still operated during the we...

Jane Eyre is often forced on schoolchildren before they're ready to enjoy it. It's such a shame if that turns them off the Brontes - the novels are a joy, full of passion, elements of the Gothic and strong characterisation.

Am so happy I finally picked up this book and treated myself to reading it. Oh, the journey of Jane from childhood through young adulthood - the successes and failures, the trials; and ultimately, her self-determination, perseverance, and confidence in the truth of what her heart and mind told her gave this reader a deeply satisfying experience. Surprisingly passionate at times, this book really packs a wallop near the end. I found myself reminded of fairy tales in all their grim and lovely twis...

This will always be one of my favorite books. I read it every few years and never tire of it. It's a masterpiece of storytelling, characterization, and beautiful writing. The narrator, Jane, is such a believable character, and I always relate to her.The highlights for me:Bronte's portrayal of Jane as a child while she is downtrodden at Gateshead Hall. ("How much I wished to reply fully to this question! How difficult it was to frame any answer! Children can feel, but they cannot analyse their fe...

3.5-4. I remember reading this on my own in my late teens and enjoying it. This time around I still love Heathcliff but found myself wishing for a bit...more. I love seeing connections with this book in modern day literature across genres. Angsty men and troubled relationships and lovers that just can’t seem to make it work.

I didn't really like this book.

Jane Eyre:Years after I first read this in high school, and I still love this story. Such feeling, such heart, such brokenness and healing. Everything my emotional heart adores.Content: profanity, expletives, replacement expletives, tobacco, alcoholWuthering Heights: This story was just as emotional as the first time I read it and the numerous times I’ve watched the Ralph Fiennes movie version. There’s something completely broken yet absolutely intriguing about Heathcliff. He’s such a brute, but...

(Note to self, this is my first review). There are three primary problems that I had with this book. I will say first that this is purely my opinion and that fellow readers are free to and invited to disagree. The first problem that I had with this book is that the style of narration makes the story more confusing (to me at least) and (to an extent) detaches the reader from the events that occur. The narrator, the "I", is a Mr. Lockwood, a stranger to the Wuthering Heights area and a visiting te...

Jane Eyre ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Jane, such a lovely, proper young woman. A lady whose morals and principles hold out over her heart, and who is rewarded with her happy ending. Solid story. The characters were interesting and engaging. Few twists and turns, a dab of the supernatural, and a happy ending. Everything one would expect from a quintessential Gothic romance.Wuthering Heights ⭐️⭐️I can't decide who I hated more, Heathcliff, Catherine, or every other character. Boring story. it felt as if the story was...

A reread of Wuthering Heights.

Jane Eyre is about a woman in the eighteenth century who falls in love with her employer and she has struggles when trying to show them to him. The main characters in this novel are Jane Eyre, Mr. Rochester and Helen Burns. When Jane realizes her feelings for Mr. Rochester she becomes confused in what she wants in life. "I am no bird; and no net ensnares me; I am a free human being with an independent will." (Bronte 53) The theme in this book is mostly love. For example, Jane and Mr. Rochester a...

Feminism and Fairy Tales in Wuthering HeightsFW: this was written over one year ago. I am always a big fan of Emily Bronte.Since many scholarly evaluations tend to see Heathcliff as another ego of Catherine, the heroine in Emily Bronte’s novel Wuthering Heights, providing myriads of evidence of Catherine’s narcissism, for example, her overly quoted comment about the relationship between Heathcliff and Catherine, the identification of Heathcliff has been deemed as another Catherine or an ideal Ca...

Between moors and mist, Wuthering Heights rises itself as one of the characters in this passional, Romanticism novel. This will be the home of the half part of the characters, a well-known family, the Earnshaws, while in the other part of the valley, in a less uncanny emplacement, Thrushcross Grange has become Lintons family´s dwell. These two families will be connected when Catherine Earnshaw feels her life will be completed -at least, socially, of what to be expected from her- when marrying Ed...
