She's a page turner but she's also made me a Mrs. Danvers apologist and I refuse to change that. The narrator is whiny and she reminds me of Taylor Swift.

Our young protagonist- who goes nameless- is swept off her feet by the handsome and rich Maxim de Winter and quickly becomes his wife. However the house they share is still haunted by the ghost of Maxim’s late wife and the titular Rebecca. The new Mrs de Winter is constantly in Rebecca’s shadow, not to mention that Rebecca’s old maid Mrs Danvers (who was infatuated with Rebecca) is constantly trying to undermine her.
This is a gothic horror story with plenty to analyse. It’s almost a psychological horror. The plot is fantastic, the characters are messy and real, and the ending is spectacular. I guessed the “twist” but honestly even if you see it coming this book is enjoyable.
