did anyone not like wuthering heights or is it just me?

i read this book in 7th grade

hated every minute of it

i pretty much told my teacher she had no taste in books after she recommended this to me along with Jane Eyre and other euro-centric slow moving page killers.

i mean damn, for my forays in european lit, can i get a lil sex, drugs, homoeroticism and class struggle?! is that too much to ask

Followed by disbelief that I was reading what I was reading at the time.
