A review by amarettto
Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier

5.0

I think I just found my favorite book of all time. I almost read it slower than other books because I couldn’t bear for it to end. It also had me realize that this particular genre of gothic romance isn’t super mainstream today which is maybe why it took me a while to locate it, but how amazing the narratives and vividness of emotion and persona are! The idea that something can simultaneously be at both extremes of beautiful and terrible hits the reader time and time again and I absolutely loved that.
Gripping till the very last paragraph.
