A review by utahmomreads
Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier

5.0

Daphne du Maurier's slow, steady psychological thriller was pure enjoyment. I had a few moments where I remembered black and white scenes from Alfred Hitchcock's cinematic creation of "Rebecca". I must have watched it as a child. I was glad that I couldn't actually remember the ending.

The young bride narrates and the reader journeys through her somewhat obsessive thought process as she meets the inhabitants of Manderley--her new home.

The writing is superb and the main (unnamed) character especially is completely and some times frustratingly realistic. Wonderful!
