I don't get the fascination with Wuthering Heights. I hate every single character in that book.

Ummm.. Still got to go with Wuthering Heights. Although, I'd pick Jane Eyre over both.

I've read Wuthering Heights, haven't read Little Women. At this point, I'd choose reading Little Women for the first time over re-reading Wuthering Heights. As a wry songwriter once once observed of it, "You two are so co. Get some therapy."

Wuthering Heights. By Far. Plus, I'm pretty Kate Bush hasn't written any songs about Little Women.

It's 1800's-Emo. What's not to love?

Sorry SL, a little too late. I ended up choosing Little Women. The truth is I found that book first on my bookshelf, so that was the deciding factor.

If you're interested, here was my assessment

I agree with your assessment. I think you should read Wuthering Heights sometime, if only so that you can get that Pat Benatar song in your head. Or maybe you'd prefer Kate Bush's original version.
