3/5

Despite rating it 3 stars, I really did enjoy this gothic novel. It took me about a week to finish, and I found it to be quite an intriguing read. I was not glued to the book (partly due to the old-English which I need to brush up on) but I also did not dread picking it up every day.

Known for being ahead of its time, Wuthering Heights is brutally honest in its depiction of the ugly side of humanity. Emily Bronte’s depictions of mental illness, social class, and domestic abuse were engaging and well-written. It evokes many mixed emotions in its reader. Similar to Lolita, I found myself sympathizing with one of the “villains” of the novel - Heathcliff - which confused me greatly as the author spends a good portion of the novel pitting the reader against him. He is not created to be likable or deserving of pity. Yet, his tragic upbringing and obsession with Catherine makes his actions seem almost oddly understandable. He has few redeemable qualities and is never made out to be a hero. In some ways, this honesty makes Bronte’s imperfect characters somewhat likable.

Overall, this is a very dark read with complex characters. I really enjoyed the shift in viewpoint between the frame narrator, Lockwood, and the recorder of the main narrative, Nelly. I would highly suggest it to anyone interested in classic literature or difficult themes!

Hiya! As a student of English literature you just need to be able to see the Lake District at least once in your life. This summer I went there with my love and it was amazing! Nature is absolutely stunning there (now I know where Wordsworth got his inspiration from). Xx Litreliworld

[reviewor]

Starting my last year of IB

So it's week three of senior year and I'm so overwhelmed with everything that's come up. In the first two weeks I found myself extremely stressed with all the work and important deadlines that have come up, barely getting any sleep. So, I have decided to join the 100 days of productivity challenge starting today. I hope to be able to post every day and sharing my productivity will not only help me to maintain motivated and on the ball, but perhaps also inspire other people, like it did me.

[09/07/17 - 16:17] I'm gathering a few ideas to start my new bullet journal. I really like this yearly overview from my old one, so I think I might keep it.

Hi! 

During my freshman year, I was required to take AP Human Geography. It was an easy ap class to start off with. Throughout the year, we had vocabulary quizzes for every unit. I made these alternate version of flashcards (inspired by @studyign ) which really helped. The only thing I regret was not reviewing them over time because I would only review them for the quiz and then put it off to the side. However, I wished I had been studying them throughout the year to get ready for the AP Exam. So I hope someone learns from my mistakes xD

Hi, there!

*waves* 

hehe

My name’s Christine, and I’ve been casually looking at studyblrs and bujo posts for a few months now ever since my friend informed me about this majestic lifestyle. I think it was definitely something interesting that I wanted to try, but felt like I would never have enough creativity or dedication to even begin one. However, senior year is almost on the horizon, and starting out without the feeling of impending doom seems like a pretty good idea. 

Tidbits About Me (if you’re curious): 

I absolutely hate the taste of mint - mint toothpaste, chocolate, gum, anything - it’s just bleh

I’m 16 (September 12, 2000)

My nationality is American and my ethnicity is Chinese and Taiwanese

INTJ

I’m classically trained in piano, and I can mess around with the guitar a bit

These Are a Few of My Favorite Things ;)

Percabeth and Solangelo <3 

I’m Dan and Phil trash, and I love a lot of British YouTubers 

Collecting enamel and button pins 

Traveling!! I’ve been to Spain, China, and multiple states so far

Winter air because summer air feels like I’m suffocating 

TV Shows: The Voice, America’s Got Talent, World of Dance, and The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon

Stationery, of course!!

Classes I Will Be Taking 

AP Calculus AB

AP Environmental Science

AP Physics

AP Literature

AP Psychology 

GoalsGoalsGoals

staying dedicated to my bujo

Hi Everyone!

So I haven’t been online for a while because I was super busy, I had exam week, went to the UK and started some new modules. But I’m back! At the moment I’m studying for The Aesthetics of Detection, it is a great module.

Have Fun Reading!
