Wuthering Woes

I'm bad at reading. It's February 10th, I'm at page 22 and I have absolutely no idea what is going on. I might have to read some sort of summary on the internet to figure out what's happening because I don't even know who's narrating this book. I am so confused. Why is February so short?

Usually, I'm against summaries. Whenever I read books, I want to be as in the dark as possible until that chapter that all is revealed. When I read Jane Eyre, I was lost in the beginning but instead of reading the Wikipedia page and spoiling the story for myself, I just read page after page until I was sort of kind of sure what was going down.

Similarly, I have gotten this far in Wuthering Heights because I keep reading. My attention wanders and I end up reading each page 2-3 times, but I do continue on. And now, at chapter three, I'm thinking I may just review SparkNotes and read the summary of the first few chapters. Is there anything inherently wrong with that?

I'm thinking yes, there is, because otherwise I would have done it already, rather than hesitating.

Because I have noticed similarities in my experience with Emily and Charlotte Bronte, I have come to two conclusions either of which could be correct: One is that the Bronte sisters are not talented with comprehensive beginnings that are readable and hook-y or, two, I am bad at reading.

Let's hope it's number one.
