Novel


If you could only own one novel, what would it be?

Let me start by saying that to only own or have access to one novel would be cruel and unusual punishment to me. My greatest vice is books. I don’t have much room for them but I make due and my kindle is a lifesaver. However, I think that if I could only own one novel it would have to be Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë. I love gothic romances. There is so much going on in this one. There is drama (more than on the Jerry Springer show) love, hysteria, strife, death and finally a happily ever after. Also I think a lot can be learned from this book. The characters show us how terrible love can be and then show us the good thing it should be. I won’t tell you much more because you will enjoy discovering it on your own much more. Tell me if this punishment was imposed on you what novel would you choose?

  1. I would choose The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexander Dumas because it has everything, from mystery to a love story.
