Anyway, I am currently listening to 'Wuthering Heights' by Kate Bush. Heard it for the first time on 'the Voice' a few nights back and although my initial thought was 'Eek! Sounds like the girl swallowed helium!' I am pulled in once she reached the chorus. So mesmerizing. You'll find the song on my blog's playlist.
Leave behind my wuthering, wuthering
Wuthering Heights
Chorus :
Heathcliff, it's me, I'm Cathy, I've come home,I'm so cold, let me in a-your-window
Heathcliff, it's me, I'm Cathy, I've come home,
I'm so cold, let me in a-your-window
Oh let me have it, let me grab your soul away,
Oh let me have it, let me grab your soul away,
You know it's me, Cathy
Lol. Such a dark lyric, but so fitting of the novel. I read it a few years ago when I was really into Classical novels. Only once and never again. I don't get the hype about it being one of the most romantic novel of all times. It depresses me, is cruel and I totally cannot connect with the main characters. Of all the Bronte sisters' novels, I love Charlotte's Jane Eyre the most. Should get dad to bring over the books from back home when he visits in June.
I read two novels by an author while I was at uni and for the life of me, could not recall her name. While I was reading my notes last night, the title of the books hit me like a tonne of bricks. "Beating about the bushes" and "Reading between the lines" by Linda Taylor. I'm ecstatic. >_< Totally love her novels. They're light, easy and made me laugh out loud. Feel good novels that I cannot get enough of. Found out that she'd written a couple more novels since and can't wait to get my oral over and done with so I can start raiding the library for them.
Time for a run and back to studying. *sigh* Wish me luck guys~
