In Which We Discuss Books I Read in my 27th Year, Week 31/52


Six books lasy week; three more seasons of Clare in the Community, Needful Things and Gerald's Game, and Wuthering Heights.

Wuthering Heights was the only book was was new to me.  I got it as an audiobook on Audible's daily deal for £2.99, and it was listening to it as an audiobook that got me through it.  I found the opening quite slow and I didn't like a lot of the characters.  It seems to be that Cathy and Heathcliff deserved one another, and it would have saved everyone else a lot of trouble if they'd just fucked off together early on.

I liked Heathcliff more towards the end.  He began to remind me of Snape, if Snape were a sociopath.

I've written a longer post about the Stephen King books here.

Clare in the Community is a radio series starring Sally Phillips.  I love basically everything she's in.
