There are going to be some people who don’t like her at all, and that’s okay. She was such a real and relatable character. I’m not sure if I was supposed to hate her or love her or both. It’s changing her, changing everything.Ĭruel reality has a way of always catching up to you, no matter how fast of how far you run reality has a way to destroy ones hopes and dreams.Ĭathy. It’s making her resent Ben and his perfection. It’s tearing her apart from the inside out. The one thing she has always wanted in life, to become a mother, is out of her reach. She is married to the perfect man who loves and adores her.

We get a back and forth, into the past and present. I'm broken, lost, and disgusted with myself.Ĭathy narrates most of this broken love story.

It left me with a major case of the feels. Trying to convey my feelings for this book is proving to be difficult. I'd take Mr Rochester and his bigamist ways over Arsen (Heathcliff) any day.More than 5 Incredible & Intense stars!!!Īrsen is full of angst, love, sex, passion, devastation, heartbreak. Self-deprecating, self-degrading characters are not romantic. What could you possibly love about this story? I know there are people who LOVE WH. I'm seeing a lot of 5 star reviews, but there were some grammatical errors, some transitional errors and just the story line was depressing. Personally, like Heathcliff and Cathy, they deserved each other because they were so miserable to each other. There is absolutely no redeeming quality to Arsen or Cathy. There is one very graphic, very disgusting scene between Arsen and Cathy that in my mind should have women up in arms about it, not swooning. One minute he can't breathe without her and the next minute, he's screaming at her because she won't tell him if she's sleeping with her husband. Especially with the way that Arsen treats Cathy. The ping ponging between two guys isn't romantic, it's sick and twisted. In talking with a friend, the voice of both Arsen and Ben is hard to differentiate. He doesn't care that she's married and pregnant. Of course Arsen has already set in motion what he wants and that is Cathy. Because why the hell not? (implausibility #2). Cathy decides that she'd rather keep Arsen around as a friend. He immediately sets his sights on Cathy and when she rebuffs him, he becomes downright mean and nasty. Can't keep a job, but has money coming out the ying yang. If you have a Mr Darcy, why in the world would you turn to the moody, ever-volatile Heathcliff? Like his counterpart, Arsen is full of himself, he's a shame to his family. I'm not one to break out the feminist manifesto, but this book is a case-study on what not to look for in a guy. There is not one redeeming quality to Arsen. Ben, is the ever-loving, annoyingly perfect cuckolded husband. So pretty much Arsen is Heathcliff and well Cathy is Cathy. Arsen is a sick, misogynistic 24 year old.

Arsen a broken love story
