Finished this one on March 30 as well and loved! This is a very good gothic novel. I really loved the story, the writing style, characters were all well written. I didn't like Rebecca though, because personalities like her disgust me. But everything else was great and reading it was quite cosy and pleasant!

The main character’s catastrophizing - her vivid daydreams about the invisible lives and internal thoughts of the people around her mirrored and sparked my own anxiety in an incredible way. I like that the themes can flex to accomodate both readings that are more and less sympathetic to Rebecca.
