purplemuskogee 's review for:

Jamaica Inn by Daphne du Maurier
4.5
adventurous dark mysterious tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

A great gothic novel with all the right ingredients - the desolated landscape, the threatening inn, the violent innkeeper, the mysterious shadows, the strange vicar, the outlaw, the orphaned young woman... Very atmospheric and mysterious throughout.
