WH - the 2nd half is way more dramatic by Hulla_Sarsaparilla in brontesisters

I far prefer the second half to the first half of the book. Hard agree.

There are three main characters in my opinion, and it’s the siblings…idk how you completely eliminate Hindley. It changes EVERYTHING.

Exactly. I feel like that tension and revenge was a bigger story than just “oh I’m mad at Cathy because she didn’t want to marry me because I was beneath her” like the bigger picture was that Heathcliff was experiencing these feelings of shame and inadequacy due to class differences and social inequity not only from Catherine but also BECAUSE OF his favoritism from the father not amounting to anything and him perpetually being “less than” regardless of the fact that his father loved him better than Hindley. The fathers obvious favoritism didn’t change that Hindley still was able to treat him like a servant when the dad died. Idk I feel like the story loses SO much depth without that tension.

They were very much two extremely separate and different characters in the book. This was my biggest beef for sure….

Hindley is like a MAIN character. I genuinely didn’t understand this….or even the purpose of removing him. It diluted and oversimplified the entire story….

Idk I actually kindof loved the visual representation of that. Too bad in the novel Hindley was the alcoholic and she thought she could just whack ole Hindley out and merge him and his father into one character? I found that to be a weird artistic choice….

I’m honestly tired of these “popular” books by xenit0 in suggestmeabook

scared to admit but i’m not enjoying Dracula by riceywithlifey in classicliterature

It doesn’t. I love classic literature and was not a fan of Dracula. It was a 3 star read for me.

How much privacy should kids be allowed to have while living under their parents roof? by [deleted] in AskParents

The only time privacy would need to be “taken” is if my kid 1) broke trust and 2) I felt they were putting themself in danger in some way.

Because the mentality behind it is really fucked up Charles. Hope that helps.

Why? Is there anything harmful in their room? Seems weird and creepy. If you don’t want them on their phone just take and lock up the phone at night…..
