Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier
5.0

5 glowing stars for Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier.

This may be the best suspense novel I've ever read. I was on the edge of my seat the entire book and I just couldn't put it down once I started. Rebecca is considered to be a gothic romance and it was rather dark throughout. The setting in 1930's England and at the Estate of Manderley was excellent, and the characters were all very memorable. I also loved the ending of the novel. It ended with a cruel twist of fate that was so fitting to the story.

Rebecca is a wonderful novel. Recommended if you enjoy gothic/dark romance stories and/or suspense novels.
