Victorian Love....... Wuthering Heights

The plot basically centers around the web of love in the book. The romance is such a strong feeling that you can't help but fall in love with the characters. I actually think that Heathcliff and Cathy's relationship symbolizes something, but I can't quite put my finger on it though. But, without romance, the book would be a bore. Kind of like Twilight would be the stupidest book with out Edward and Jacob. Perhaps that is why it mentions this book :)

Victorian History....... Wuthering Heights

Emily Bronte's writing contains a lot of romanticism. Heathcliff and Catherine's love was doomed from the start yet their love was unconditional. Romanticism and realism was a constant theme during the Victorian time period. It showed up in society as well as literature and the arts. Wuthering Heights is the perfect combination of both elements meshed together.

Wuthering Heights........ Twisted Love

This book has a lot of drama!!! Relationships in Wuthering Heights are dark, stormy, and twisted. Cathy loves Heathcliff but marries Edgar and Heathcliff loves Cathy but marries Isabella. Mr. Earnshaw loves his adopted son, Heathcliff, better than his biological son, Hindley, causing Hindley to despise Heathcliff. It is all just messed up. It kind of reminds me of my family lol.

Wuthering heights......... Alliteration

This book took me back to 8th grade and when we had to find all the alliteration in that Edgar Allan Poe story. I found it everywhere like in chapter 2 it said "the first feathery flakes of a snow-shower." or in chapter 7 it said, "fingers wonderfully whitened with doing nothing and staying indoors." I thought that was really cool and it really adds to the quality of the book. When it was in its most boring parts, Lockwood or someone would use alliteration and I actually stopped and kept saying it out loud. I don't know, it just made me smile.

Cat and mouse....ch 24


The creature’s pov

So Victor’s following me. I find that very amusing considering he will never catch up to me. He’s always at least one step behind me. And what’s funny is that I’m leading him North and into the cold which I know I won’t have a problem with, but he will. And I felt the need to leave him a few notes along the way, like in trees and stuff. When is he going to learn? You just don’t mess with me :)

Killing Spree.... Ch 21-23


The creature’s pov

So, Victor was almost charged s guilty for Henry’s murder. I have no idea who could’ve done THAT! ;) But, they let him go back home, and he lives it up with Elizabeth, Things looked like they were going perfect until I showed up. I had been keeping a close eye anyways just to see if he was working on my wife like he was supposed to be, but obviously not. I waited until it was storming then went in and killed Elizabeth, as well as his Father.  I was just so outraged that I had to do something. In my defence though, I did give him fair warning. It’s not my fault he didn’t believe me. Oh well, dead is dead.

REALLY??? ARE YOU SERIOUS?? Ch 20 end


The creature’s pov


So I went to see that lowlife of a creator I have and he destroyed her!! It’s like he just went psycho and forgot about everything I said and all of my threats! Does he really not think that I will do then because if he does then he obviously doesn’t know me very well? I have no problem showing up after he’s married. I know he definitely would not want that, but the sad thing is is that I know that he isn’t going to take me seriously. He is going to blow it off for the most part and forget about my threats before it’s too late. Well, that will be his problem then, when I show up to his house to kill somebody. I am to the point of not caring anymore. Whatever happens, happens, and he deserves EVERY bit of it.

Excitement... Beg. Ch. 20


The Creature’s pov

It’s been almost three years now of my solitude and I am more than happy to leave it! I think I scared Victor so much with my last threat that he’s got to pull through this time. I’m honestly not expecting much from him because let’s face it, he’s a terrible creator/father figure. Anything would be better than this. I hope he never has kids with that lover of his, Elizabeth. He doesn’t even deserve the happiness that she gives him. As a matter of fact I just may have to pay him a visit soon. Just to see how horrible he feels and to see how my lovely wife will be………

Do you really blame me? Ch 16

THE CREATURE'S POV

I didn't mean to strangle that kid but I just got so mad!! Why does he get to be apart of the Frankenstein family and I don't? I deserve it just as much as he did. He was created and brought into the family in a different way than I was, but I still got there. Does the passage that I had to take really make a difference? We were both created and molded by our makers, whether they were the same force or not, it shouldn't matter. I guess you could say I was jealous of that boy. Jealous of his childhood. Jealous of his interaction with the family. Jealous that he was able to call them family. UGH! I hate it. I just want SOMEBODY! I saw Victor today and told him of my proposition. I told him that he needs to make me a mate and that if he did, then I'd disappear from the world and society. He refused at first but I know he'll do it. He'll go against nature once again just so that he won't have to put up with me anymore. Oh well, I guess it's all worth it. It's a win-win situation. I get someone to love and be loved by and he gets rid of me. I'd much rather have his love but lord knows I won't get it. I'm not good enough for him and never will be. Maybe my mate will think differently of me.... maybe she'll see me for who I truly am....maybe...just...maybe.....     :)

OHMYGOSHERSNESS........CH 15

THE CREATURE'S POV

I can't believe that the second, the ONE second some tries to except me, it is ripped out of my hands!!! He said he was going to try, but they didn't give him the chance to explain! If he could except me then why can't they? He is the first person other than that selfish creator of mine that I've actually had a complete conversation with without the interruption of people screaming... Well, I guess we did have an interruption but we still got through most of our little talk. Felix didn't have to hit me with a stick though. I could have dealt without that. I don't know, I don't understand sometimes. Ugh I just wish I didn't have to go back into solitude and be hidden like before. I really liked talking to De Lacey but I guess I won't get that anymore.

Their History..... CH 14

THE CREATURE'S POV



It must be nice to have a family like that that will stick together no matter what. Safie's father caused so much hardship for them all yet they tried to help him. Even in his time of need, Felix came in and tried to help him escape from prison. Everything turned into a big mess and Felix's father, the old man, De Lacey, even went to jail along with Agatha. Felix fell in love with Safie. You can tell just how much he loves her because of the way he acts around her. The love creates a very bright aura around him and its hard not to feel what he feels. It's kind of depressing for me though..... I want that so bad...... I want to feel that way..... I want to love and be loved, that's all.....

My recent lifestyle----- CH 13

The Creature's POV

So.... Here lately I've been keeping on the down low at this little cottage. The humans that live here have taught me so much and I've learned a lot about them too. Their friend Safie came today from a far away place. She seemed to make things better for the family. They were having a hard time just getting by, but things are starting to look up them. I am very thankful for them all, I have learned a great deal like how to say a few words, but I still don't like my voice. Right now, the boy, Felix, is reading from Volney's Ruins of Empires and I must say that it is quite interesting! Even though I know he is reading to Safie, it feels like he's actually reading to me. Sometimes I wonder if this is what its like when parents read their kids bedtime stories... Of course, I wouldn't know, but I sure would like to......

Life without love CHAPTER 10

THE CREATURE'S POV

I went away and have lived in the mountains for awhile. Things are super different. I actually ran into that stupid creator of mine.... ugh..... humans.... He seems to be smitten with that girl of his. I wouldn't know what that's like. No one loves me, they don't understand me, they just don't get me. I just want to be accepted, that's it. When I saw him in the mountains he tried to fight me. I expected it though and tried to be calm, without fail. I was very surprised at how cool I kept things. I told him how I felt though and gave him some.... conditions... that he needs to fulfill so that he won't lose the one's he loves. He deserves to know what I feel like though. He's abandoned me, so he should also be abandoned. I just want him all to myself, or for him to at least acknowledge me for the person I am, not the monster. But, on the bright side, I went into this village and even though everyone ran screaming from me, I found refuge in a small family. They are helping me learn and I love it, It's nice to feel accepted for once.

GRRRR you person! Chapter 7ish through 9ish

THE CREATURE'S POV

I cannot believe my own CREATOR! does not believe me. I told him I did not kill that child. Why doesn't he believe me? Why am I never good enough for him? It's like he's ashamed of me or something, which would not surprise me. I don't know why he created me in the first place when he didn't want me to begin with. That just doesn't make sense. He doesn't even know what its like for me either. Its so hard feeling like no one wants you, especially the one person you thought would have to love you no matter what. It just doesn't make sense. And he should believe me! He gave me life in a sense and he might as well take it away! ...... I just need to get away.
