"Last night I dreamt I went to Manderley again..."
I thought the book started way too slow, and never came to the point. Rebecca was introduced very well, but everything else was a slog. Things get interesting after Danvers starts antagonizing the new bride, and my reading pace ramped up right until the final twist. Very well done.
The main character is super neurotic, and that did not endear me to her at all. Imagine this book if she didn't overthink everything. But then I guess it's only natural, so I wont judge.
