“He wanted all to lie in an ecstasy of peace; I wanted all to sparkle and dance in a glorious jubilee. I said his heaven would be only half alive; and he said mine would be drunk: I said I should fall asleep in his; and he said he could not breathe in mine.”
~Emily Bronte

I feel like it‘s a book nemesis for me (a book I love and hate at the same time)
The characters are quite rough and hateful but their perspective and approach is what kept me stick to the book to the end.
Also to mention Emily Bronte‘s writing style and choice of words have taken me aback! (it‘s her first book that I read)
P.S. Vol.I had more depth in terms of context than Vol.II

One can truly feel the profundity while reading it. It‘s one of those sorts which isn‘t found easily in a reading list but one day you‘ll stumble upon it, left in thoughts!
Friendship, racism, women empowerment and many other powerful themes have been fathomed into a constellation.
P.S. I think it would make a good movie since I didn‘t like many scenes in the book which could be cut out in the film but still I would give it many stars!

//-You know what's really wonderful about those fireflies? Sure, they live for just a few weeks. Not much at all in the grand scheme of things. But while they're there, the beauty of them, well, it takes your breath away. You get to see the world in a whole new way. And then you have that beautiful picture burned onto the inside of your head. To carry it wherever you go. And never forget it-//

//-What really knocks me out is a book that, when you are all done reading it, you wish the author that wrote it was a terrific friend of yours and you could call him up on the phone whenever you felt like it-//
~J.D. Salinger

“We see the evil in others because we know the evil in ourselves. We never forgive those who wound us because we believe that we would never be forgiven. We say the painful truth to others because we want to hide it from ourselves. We show our strength, so that no one can see our frailty. That is why whenever you judge your brother, be aware that it is you who is in the dock.”

“Everyone demented with the mania of owning things. All the things paper-thing and paper-frail. And all the people, too. I‘ve lived here for eighteen years and I have never once in my life come across anyone who cares about anything that matters.”

In a desert once, on a hunt did I find;
With a radiant smile, a flower so fair;
Sadly I approached and sighed,
“Are you too a hapless flower from a beloved‘s heart?”
“Frail fingers would not take you to a soft face so close!
Nor would you be kissed by lips delicate like a rose!”
With a silent smile the flower replied,
“Don‘t lose heart!”
“This desert, I wouldn‘t give up!
For the gardens of Iran!”

//- “I‘m in love with you, and I know that love is just a shout into the void, and that oblivion is inevitable, and that we‘re all doomed and that there will come a day when all our labor has been returned to dust, and I know the sun will swallow the only earth we‘ll ever have, and I am in love with you.” -//

~From the rustle of flickering pages..
To the unwinding of words...
~From the journey to wonder places..
To the scrabbling of thoughts...
~I stayed face stuck to a book; lost and bound;
~And that‘s how I got myself found!

//~He was gone, and I did not have time to tell him what I had just now realized: that I forgave him, and that she forgave us, and that we had to forgive to survive in the labyrinth.

Living with Anxiety and OCDs is like living in a cage. No matter how hard one strives, there‘s always that one bar that won‘t open up.
It is a chronicle of a usual teenage life. It is perfect for a light mood read as it‘s free from extra plot twists and take the reader smoothly through the storyline.
“Life long friendships, Intimacy, Fan fictions, Tarantula, Insanity, Lunacy, Germs..... it‘s never gonna end cause IT‘S TURTLES ALL THE WAY DOWN!”

A beautiful message inked into the papers of this book on one side leaves the reader inspired about our spiritual links with others but on the other side it gets a bit heavy on minds for it lacks certain aspects of sophistication.
The fiction in the story could have been blossomed by putting some knots into the plainness. It can still be worthy of being put onto your book shelf for the theme is exceptional and is meant to be understood by us.
