Could it be that you own more than 49 Bronte works?
Sorry, my computer keeps freezing
No. I just counted and after receiving two more books this week, I have 49.
My lie is #4. Wuthering Heights isn't a romance. It's a violent, savage tale about the destruction of obsessive love. Regardless, it's my favourite novel in all of English literature. I love the narrative structure and complex literary technique.
Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1847): "Wuthering Heights is a fiend of a book – an incredible monster. The action is laid in hell"
Graham's Magazine (1848): "How a human being could have attempted such a book as the present without committing suicide before he had finished a dozen chapters, is a mystery. It is a compound of vulgar depravity and unnatural horrors".
It's a shame that Hollywood insisted on marketing this classic horror story into a romance. No wonder young women are confused about how relationships should be felt, expressed or experienced. It's more a novel about narcissism and infatuation than love.
Still, 10 thumbs up.

Correct. I was there for 6 days. A lot longer than I would have been, if I'd payed attention to the signals my body was giving me. But then again even the doctors were confused as to what it could be initially, because the onset pain was on the "wrong" side.

I'm glad you recovered. I had mine removed but it didn't rupture. I know a guy who died when his ruptured at a party. He thought he was just intoxicated.
