<revolted> Wuthering Heights? Yuck. That's probably among my most hated books. And not all of those were for classes, actually. My grandma is a big believer in classics--she conned me into reading Jane Eyre at the tender age of 12. It has not improved upon successive rereadings. None of the Bronte's stuff has. I hate the style. The heroines don't move me, and I don't care what happens to them.

Tolkein is more fun, and he's long winded...

"Keep an open mind, I always say. Drives sensible people mad, I know, but what did we ever get from sensible people? Not poetry or art or music, that's for sure."
