Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier

5.0

4.5 ⭐️ loved!! a new all time favorite classic. du maurier’s writing is so stunning and lyrical, the descriptions of manderley were so vivid and immersive, the tension kept growing until the very last page, the character work was extremely skillful and the plot twists were executed so immaculately. the haunting, chilling atmosphere kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time.

(first third is mostly no plot just vibes + overall i enjoyed the book tremendously Despite the very uncomfortable age gap relationship. it got less unsettling to read later though)
