Wuthering Heights: I Read It.

Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë

by 3 Comments

I’m trying to fill in the gaps of Classics I Never Read, and I had never read any of the Brontës. What better place to start than Wuthering Heights? If nothing else, it would give me an opportunity to care a little more about the new movie, which looks very pretty. But reader: I hated it. I’m glad I read it, and I love that I have an opinion now, and I get that this is about toxicity and bad choices and enabling and finding […]

The Favorites is that story. This book has everything. Buckets of blood? Check. Violently gory injuries with ice skates? Check. Skating partners who […]

BJ Ballentine is the bad boy influencer who broke her heart. They grew up together, were dating, broke up because of his infidelity, and now they’re “best friends”. I totally got suckered into this book by the cover. The pink heels are very cute so I threw this on my holds […]

Let’s get out of here. You’re free from that waffletart now.
