Jamaica Inn by Daphne du Maurier
1.0

This book is terrible. I picked it up because the author’s best known work (Rebecca) is a long-standing favourite of mine, so I wanted to try some of her other work. This doesn’t even feel like the same author, unless she wrote it in a fugue state. The characters are barely sketched out, none are likeable in any sense, the plot is bizarre and rambling and I overall couldn’t wait for it to be finished, and it’s a short book. Skip this and read Rebecca instead, at least that book is amazing.
