pickThis was a reread for me. I first read this almost 20 yrs ago in my early 20s. And I remembered this as an unhappy love story. As I read it this time, I sat wondering how pink my glasses was the first time. This is not a love story if anything it‘s a revenge story. Heathcliff is no romantic hero, he‘s crazy and evil and mean.

mjtwo I had exactly the same experience. How could 20 year old me have thought this was a great romance? It is actually quite horrific. 2y
Sophronisba It is always so interesting to revisit books that you read when you were young -- Great Expectations also becomes an entirely different book every ten years. 2y

AnneCecilie @mjtwo I know. I‘m so glad I‘m not the only one that started doubting the younger self. 2y
AnneCecilie @Sophronisba Maybe that is something I should do. I think it‘s almost 20 years since I read Great Expectations too. 2y
AnneCecilie @Crinoline_Laphroaig I‘m not much of a rereader so I wouldn‘t notice that, but it was so obvious this time. Thanks for hosting this buddy read and I‘ve answered your overall questions. 2y
Crinoline_Laphroaig @AnneCecilie Your Welcome! 2y
