It really is good! I have even heard from other book bloggers that they don’t keep many thrillers on their shelves, but Gone Girl is the one they still have. I was honestly very impressed even after I watched a movie and knew what’s gonna happen
Wuthering Heights (along with Hamlet) made me a book reader when I read it in high school. It's a devastating love story, as well one about revenge. I disagree, I think Heathcliff and Cathy deeply loved each other. But like the Joy Division Song says, "Love, Love will tear us apart." I've seen many adaptations of the book, and my two favorites are first, one done by the BBC in the late 1998s, which is available on youtube. The second and much harder to find was done by Luis Bunuel and the setting is Mexico. Wuthering Heights, a force of nature. I have The Great Gatsby next to Wharton's The Age of Innocence and Ford Maddox Ford's The Good Soldier. At the center of each is a love story, with devastating consequences. When I re-read one book, I revisit the other two. I think March was mystery month and I commented on some channels that the real mystery was what did Jay Gatsby see in Daisy to dedicate his remaining life to her?
I think there are two views on Heathcliff and Cathy’s relationship, and for me it felt like it started as love but grew into obsession later when Heathcliff comes back and after Cathy dies. But I can definitely see your point about it being love. Thank you for telling me about the adaptations! I really wanted to watch at least one of them, but didn’t know which one to choose. As for The Great Gatsby, I also was not sure why he chose Daisy, and what he saw in her. Maybe it was less love to her in particular and more love to the past he wanted to bring back? And she was representing this past for him. There’s a lot to think about. I will definitely be coming back to the book
Love your videos🩷
Thank you so much!!☺️
I have still never read Gone Girl, but it sounds good!

@@Merryreads That's high praise! I haven't even seen the movie, so whenever I read I should have a pretty clean slate as far as what to expect.
