I've been reading Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë.
Someone had posted a reference to the Kate Bush song. Watching the video of that song made me curious about the book, which is why I started reading it.
I enjoyed the first chapter or so. The opening of the story was amusing to me, defying my expectations. But since then it has gone downhill. The characters and plot seem unpleasant and mostly unbelievable to me.
I'm now on chapter 21 of 34. I am considering quitting the book. Without giving away spoilers, can any of you tell me if the story gets better again? Is it worth continuing to slog on through the grimness in hope of something good coming out of it?
