OMG SO GOOD. The Bronte sisters were/are my jam, but Daphne come in strong and made me love the Cornish moors as much as the Yorkshire ones. Loved the gothic setting and overall menacing feel of the book, and I love, energy more, that is based on real places throughout Cornwall (am I the only person that actively googles and maps out books as they read them. Yes? Oh, okay). I'd highly recommend for anyone who loves a good mystery/sensational setting or gothic classic. This is now up there in my top five favorite books (outside of Harry Potter, duh.).
