This was the most difficult book out of the bunch that I chose to read. It was good and the story plot was very intriguing but I got a few things out of it.


I believe that in this book, the motto of "Like mother, like daughter" comes into play because both Catherine and young Catherine were the obsession of two men and aty the samw time they were saiffering because of it. However, in the end, Miss Catherine ended up being happy, a luxury that her mother never had.

I also found it peculiar that when Lockwood stepped out int he backyard, he was among the graves of Catherine, Heathcliff, and Edhar, it was almost as if he was intertwined with their past just liek they were intertwined with each other, for life and death, and even after.

After Linton is taken away to Thrushcross, young Catherine is heartbroken about it and Nelly keeps tabs on Linton by asking the housekeeper about him and learns that Heathcliff is mean to him and Linton is always sick and weak. On Catherine's birthday, Catherine and Nelly go birdhunting and Catherine wanders off to Wuthering Heughts. Nelly finds her talking to Heathcliff and he mentions to her that he has a son. Catherine wants to mett him but Nelly tries to tell her that its not a good idea that she goes with him. Unble to stop her, they go to meet Linton which Catherine has no idea that it's him and it's her cousin. Heathcliff tells Nelly that he hopes they will get married and they soon start to exchange letters. Nelly finds out about this and immediately terminates their connection. Edagr becomes sick and spends less time with Catherine so Nelly takes over. One day Catherine ends up on Heathcliff's property and he sees her and demands that she vistits Linton. She goes and he begins to talk about marriage which annoys her and she pushes his chair. He then begins to whine and accuses her of assulting him. In my opinion he's alot like his father. After Nelly and Catherine leave, Nelly catches a cold. During the day Catherine takes care of her father and Nelly but at night, she travels to see Linton.

Nelly soons finds out about this and then Edgar finds out. During her story, she stops to explain to Lockwood that all this that she has just explained to him happened just a little over a year ago. Lockwood admits that he might fall in love with the young Catherine but doubts that anything will ever arise from that.

Nelly goes on to finsih her story, telling him that Linton continued to become weaker but assured them that he would be fine. Edgar's health continues to get worse and Linton is pretrified because Heathcliff is forcing him to ask for Catherine's hand in marriage and is afraid she will say no. Edgar ends up dying and is buried next to his wife. Catherine moves to Wuthering Heights and Heathcliff demands that she works for her stay. She states that they truly are in love and she takes care of Linton until he dies. After hsi death, she remains at the estate, keeping to herself.

So after Lockwood becomes sick at Wuthering Heights, he begs Nelly to continue on with her story of Heathcliff and Catherine.

So Catherine marries an Edgar Linton, even though she has secret feelings for Heathcliff and him the same for her. So one day he comes to Thrushcross Grange and when Catherine sees Heathcliff she immediately gets all excited and of course her husband notices becoming very jealous. Then her and Isabella, her sister in-law begin to visit him at Wuthering Heights and he begins to call at Thrushcross. Isabella ends up falling in love with Heathcliff even though she knows he loves Catherine but Heathcliff pays no attention to her. One day Nelly finds Heathcliff embracing Isabella and then Catherine makes him spill his guts about how he feels for Isabella. He then turns around ands tells her she has wronged him by marrying Edgar. Then Edgar and him get into a fist fight and Heathcliff leaves and Edgar then forces Catherine to pick between the two of them, she locks herself in a room an doesn't eat for a few days. After a few days Catherine basically goes crazy and talks alot botu death and mentions that her spirit will not rest until she is with Heathcliff.

Isabella then moves in with Heathcliff at his estate and this enrages Edgar. After Catherine recovers from her illness, she finds out that she is pregnant. One day when Nelly goes Heathcliff's estate to visit Isabella, Heathcliff begs Nelly to let him see Catherina, after threatening her, she finally decides to give a letter to Catherine from Heathcliff.

After giving the letter to Catherine and her and Heathcliff having a heart to heart, they finally forgive each other and she gives birth to a child named Catherin two months premature and Caherina, her mother, ends up dying and this hurts Heathcliff greatly.

Isabella then gives birth to Heathcliff's son, Linton and then moves away to London for twelve years. Heathcliff finds out where they both are but doesn't do anything about it. Isabella then dies when her son is 12 years old. Young Catherine who is now 13 years of age is smart and quick. He father, Edgar doesn't let her off Thrushcross, howveer when he learns of Isabella's death, he goes to London to retreive her son. Leaving Catherine in Nelly's hands ansd she is finally allowed to go explore and stumbles upon Wuthering Heights.
When Edgar comes back with Linton, Heathcliff comes asking for his son and Edgar agrees to bring Linton to him. When Linton arrives to Wuthering Heights, Heathcliff shows no affection towards Linton and talks adly about his mother. Linton begs to be taken back to Thrushcross but nelly leaves him there.

Ah! So sorry I haven't been posting, but I'm back!

Okay so my last book that I'm reading is called Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte, the sister of Charlotte Bronte (coincidence much?) and it's about a man named Mr. Lockwood who rents out an estate from a Mr. Heathcliff who owns the large estate called Wuthering Heights. While he's there he finds out about the history of Mr. Heathcliff, the story that lies in the walls of the estate and also, a certain Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff and the passionate love that they share. The story is told through retrospect and recordings of journal entries by Mr. Lockwood. The word "wuthering" as described in the book as a "provincial adjective, descriptive of the atmospheric tumult to which its station is exposed in stormy weather" (46) which has some significance because during his stay there the weather was always bad and cold and rainy. Which in my opinion could also have something to do with the stiory itself and the events that take place.

Anyways when Mr. Lockwood first arrives to meet with Mr. Heathcliff, Heathcliff is rather rude to him and Lockwood gets a certain uneasy feel about the Wuthering Heights estate. He is invited to attend a get together one night and ends up staying in a room because he cannot get back to his apartment due to bad weather. That's when he first finds out about the name Catherine when he sees her old and dusty journals near his bedside and that night an event of the supernatural occurs where he believes he sees the ghost of Catherine or he hears something. Which I connect back to Emily's sister's novel Jane Eyre in which a supernatural event also occurs.

From then the history of the estate and its people begins to unfold. Lockwood learns of Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff and a bunch of twists and ties between people.

I absolutely agree with you.

Now I just finished waching the movie version of the book. In my opinion, It wasn't that great. The beginning of the movie was the ending of the book also, alot of the parts of the book were rushed in the movie due to interest of time. If i were to choose between the movie and the book, I strongly recomment reading the book. It really is a great story.

Well, Fermina's father had arranged the marriage between her and Urbino to get her away from Florentino. During that period, young girls had to repect their fathers and all the males that had the upper hand so she really had no choice but to listen to him.

What really surprised me is that Fermina was the one who barely let out her emotions. She was very contained and that's shocking since psychologically speaking women are the ones who are more in touch with their feelings and they're the one who like to "connect more".

There was a sisterhood between her and her older cousin possibly because her mother died when she was very young and also her aunt who she would read to in the park when she was little also passed away, so she sought comfort and looked up to her older cousin.

I Finished!

In the letter Fermina wrote some of the most hurtful, horrible things a person could imagine to Florentino. But he still mistakened the letter as a token of her love. Meanwhile Fermina is heartbroken and depressed. She is grieving the loss of her husband and doesn't know what to do with herself anymore. Everything reminds her of him, so she decides to get rid of all his things by giving them away to her children in hopes that it will help her forget him and forget that he is no longer with her. She is enranged with the thought that Florentino would have the nerve to announce his love for her at the time of her husband's death and during that same time, Florentino is haunted by the thought of death.

He then decides to take America, the 14 year old out for some icecream and he then tells her that he wants to get married. Well she laughs and says that old men don't get married. After he reads Fermina's letter he writes back apologizing and then sher writes back apologizing to him too. So I guess they're back on good terms.

But America becomes jealous that Florentino no longer wants to be involved with her and swears to track down the other woman but then she backs off and finally accepts his rejection of her.

A year after Urbino's death, Florentino goes to his memorial and Fermina is happy to see him. She seeks comfort in reading his letter because it lightens up her grief.

For two weeks Florentino doesn't write to Fermina but one day he shows up at her house unexpectedly. She lets him in but he suddenly becomes sick and he leaves. The next day he sends her a letter apologizing for what had happened. She accepts and tells him to come back whenever he wants. The next week he comes back and talks about their past, she gets mad and asks him to leave. He comes back the following week once again brings up their past but this time she laughs and they both blush.

However Fermina's kids have a different opinion of Florentino and Ofelia her daughter doesn't like him. One day Florentino falls and breaks his ankle and has to stay in bed for a few weeks. He is then worried that he might die before geting better and before seeing Fermina once again. They still communicate through letters and she then realizes how much she misses him.

Once he's better he invites Fermina to go on a cruise with him on a sboat, she happily accepts excited to finally get out of her house. Once they're on the boat. she suddenly feels sad and wants to cry so Florentino gives her her space. She then suggest that they go to deck and she continues to cry. He asks if he should leave her alone but she insists that he stays. When they are about to come back on land, Florentino then has this idea and makes the captain wave the flag of cholera. Because everyone thinks that the ship is infested with cholera, no one lets them come into any of the ports. Which means that the only place for them is on the ship out on the open water, ans that's where they choose to remain.

This book was long but it truly was a beautiful story. What interests me is that usually the women are the ones who are so intact with their emotions and they're the ones who hold on to sentiments like this, but in this case, it was the man who did it and I found that so sweet.


Anyways, on my recent trip to Blockbuster, I noticed that the movie version is finally out and available to rent so I can't wait to watch it because I have so many images in my head from reading the book that I'm excited to visualize it, so I'll get back to you soon!
