Lizzie - Classic Book Club

Welcome to Classic Book Club

Hello! I am Lizzie, and my main joy in life is reading books and thinking about books! I have so many thoughts about each book I read so wanted a place to record these thoughts, and a place where others who are reading the same book as me can share their thoughts about it too. I’ve tried to write my (often lengthy!) reviews of books so it feels like I am chatting with you as we read the book together, comparing thoughts at the end of a chapter and ideas of where the plot and characters may end up, wondering why the author has written a character or scene in a particular way and what they may be subtly trying to tell us about that character or scene. So enjoy reading along with me, and please get in touch, I’d love to be able to discover more about a favourite book from your thoughts on it.

Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte

Featured Book Review

Emily Bronte
Wuthering Heights

Hmmm, I know this is a classic book and it is undoubtedly an incredible read, very powerful and emotive and memorable and thought-provoking. But I have always struggled with it as I find it so very dark and cruel and disturbing. This is obviously a sign of what a wonderful writer Emily Bronte was, to be able to provoke such strong emotions, but I find I have to steel myself to re-read the book, however I am keen to re-read it as I often see books in a different way each time I read them and I've always felt that I should love this book more as it is an incredible piece of work. So re-read it I will...! Grab your copy and let’s read it together! Read the full review
