Rebecca
by Daphne du Maurier
Closer to 3.5*
The pacing of this book S U C K E D.
However, the atmosphere, the discussion about identity, the overlooming just psychological exploration of Rebecca and what that means was interesting. But I personally didn’t need it to be 75% of the book. I get it, you’re comparing yourself to Rebecca on every page.
However the last 25-30% of this book really threw me for a LOOP and I was considering giving this 4 stars but idk I haven’t really found what I value in classics and I’m not sure Du Maurier is what I’m looking for when it comes to classics. This just felt unnecessary long especially considering it didn’t feel like the plot really picked up until the last chunk of the book.
