Everything you know about pirates probably came from this one book: wooden legs, parrots on the shoulder and treasure maps. “Treasure Island” is the story of a boy who sails on a ship searching for treasure, but instead finds himself surrounded by terrible pirates.

That name comes from Wodehouse’s series of books featuring the perfect butler Jeeves, and the many humorous adventures he and his employer had.
Jealousy and revenge are the main themes of “Wuthering Heights,” which is the name of the farmhouse where the story takes place. This book can be hard to get through, and it’s not because of the vocabulary. It’s a hard book to read because of all the cruelty in it. Still, this is a good book if you’re interested in dramas and passions.
