[quote=Anonymous]Just finished Wuthering Heights; it felt very YA/soap opera to me—so much drama stemming from immaturity. I kept wondering why there were no grown-ups in their sphere, and the complete isolation of both families at the start of the story seemed unrealistic. Surely the elder Lintons would have had some sort of social circle? Jane Eyre was far more layered and nuanced. I’m ~20% into Fruit of the Dead (Persephone/Demeter/Hades retelling set in modern day). It’s an easy read, but struggling because the age/power dynamic feels especially “ick” right now; it’s for book club and our last selection was a DNF for me, so will keep going. Dark Renaissance is my NF book, which is interesting but hasn’t totally gripped me the way it has other readers. Up next for me will be either Marriage Portrait (Maggie O’Farrell) or the Mirror and the Light (final book in the Wolf Hall trilogy).[/quote]
