Ok, confession time: I never much cared for Wuthering Heights. *hides* I can't help it, in Wuthering Heights, Catherine REALLY annoyed me and I could never truly understand what was so great about her or Heathcliff and that kinda ruined the story for me. BUT I am always up for a retelling and I have...
I love this author. The has such a beautiful way of taking classics stories, re-taling them with such vivid imagination and so modern, I can’t help but fall in love.The characters of the story is what I enjoyed most. Going from past to present, Chelsea has stumbled upon a letter, going in search for...

Sorry, but ... I don't think so. I was not a fan of what April Lindner did with Jane Eyre in [b:Jane|7826117|Jane|April Lindner|http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1337854103s/7826117.jpg|10876370]. So, her retelling of Wuthering Heights?I haven't even read Wuthering Heights yet. But, you know what ... In ...
Catherine by author April Lindner is a modern retelling of Emily Brontë’s forbidden romance Wuthering Heights. I was cautious about the novel simply because I haven’t read Wuthering Heights, ever. I’ve never really had a thing for the classics. I don’t really want to take the time out of my day to ...
As books by the Brontë sisters go, I always preferred Jane Eyre to Wuthering Heights. Plain Jane and her noble Rochester always seemed so much more appealing than spoiled, impetuous Cathy and moody, vengeful Heathcliff. That said (and after reading what feels like a hundred Jane Eyre retellings) I'v...
Catherine, a modern day retelling of Wuthering Heights, is another fabulous novel from April Lindner. Her debut, Jane (a modern Jane Eyre), blew me away and while Catherine was not quite as good, I still greatly enjoyed it. In fact, I can't stop thinking about it.I have never read Wuthering Height...
Hmm, maaaaybe? Here's my worry with this: to me, Wuthering Heights IS NOT a romance story. It is part of the Romantics (capital R), but it is not romantic. It's a story of control and obsession and it's depressing as fuck. It's about characters, and I hate most of them, and weirdly that's part of wh...
Catherine is the second Bronte retelling by April Lindner for teens. This book is a contemporary reimagining of Emily Bronte's masterpiece Wuthering Heights. After reading Jane this week I was excited to see what she would do with Wuthering Heights, which is my preferred book of the two. I was not d...
