Oh yeah, I've done it too! But I can't stand anyone feeling guilty for not finishing a book they think they're "supposed" to read.

I once gave up on Anna Karenina. I went back to that. I'm glad I did, but it was still a bit rough!

Then don't! I firmly believe that life is too short to "force" ourselves to read books we're not really interested in! Find something you like, and don't worry what anyone else thinks about it! :)

It happens to be my favorite book, but I certainly get that it's not popular.

I've never found it confusing at all. I think Bronte's descriptive language is beautiful, and I love a good villain! Heathcliff is awful, but he's also complicated.

I read it every other summer for enjoyment.
