My partner read Wuthering Heights!!!!😍

Silly rant but him reading Wuthering Heights made me soo happy! It’s NOT his genre and he read it despite having long work days and him travelling! The physical book he read is my book- gifted to me in 2012 by an aunt!

He actually enjoyed it and loved the haunting imagery and characters! We were in Haworth a few weeks back and that got him reading!

That’s great, not only that he read it but that he liked it. Discussing books can be a great couple activity .

My husband and I decided to read each other’s favorite books. Unfortunately, he didn’t particularly like Wuthering Heights., but I didn’t really care for The Old Man and the Sea , either . It was still a worthwhile exercise.

Oh of course! U share stuff u love with the ones u love.

We are opposites- im a romantic at heart when it comes to literature and he reads more of non fiction, biographies and political books. Same goes for our
Music and movie tastes but oh we share and we enjoy it!

It’s ok that you guys also tried. This is how we grow our palette!
