Summary: An old-fashioned page turner.
Review: As a middle-aged male, I am probably not the typical reader of "Rebecca". I raced through it in one weekend, careening through the many hair-pin turns that come one upon another in the last third of the book. The reviewers who complain of the slow pace of the first third should understand that the groundwork must be laid for the excitement to follow. I had to force myself to slow down so as to savor Ms. Du Maurier's enchanting descriptive writing style (being a gardener helps one appreciate the descriptions) . I must differ with all those who state that the main character remained un-named throughout the book. The main character was named... "Manderley".

Summary: An absolute page-turner!
Review: I had to read "Rebecca" for a school assignment. I'm certainly glad that I did! This was one of the best books I have ever read, and I have read a variety of books! I have never read a book with so many plot twists that leaves you in suspense throughout the story. By the end of each chapter you find yourself thinking that you know the outcome of the plot when it is actually the total opposite. I can't wait to read "Mrs. de Winter" which I am planning on going out and buying it tonight. Be sure to read this book and recommend it to all of your friends!P.S. If you don't like romance stories or mysteries then you are just like me, but I think that "Rebecca" will totally change your whole perspective on romantic mysteries.

Summary: A devine master mind plot
Review: This is the first time I know of, Where the main character is active but not present. Sheer of tension, If you read Christie's Sleeping Murder, you'll love this. I think You should see Hitchcock's movie first & then read the book, It will make the book even better.

Summary: Thrilling page turner
Review: This book is one of the finest pieces of work that I ever read! I usually dislike to read long books or romatic novels but this one was too good to put down! I also saw the movie and it was excellent too! Teens, adults and even middle age children~ read it and you will love it!

Summary: WOW
Review: This is a FABULOUS book--except that for the first 200 pages literally nothing exciting happens. All that's going on is that Mrs. Danvers hates the girl (whose name we never find out) with an undying passion. Until I found out Max's deep dark secret, I almost fell asleep reading this. But after that it's interesting. Another aspect I didn't like was the lack of any kind of real relationship between the two main characters. They're married, right? And they kiss maybe twice. It's wrong. (In my opinion, anyway.) But I think it made for interesting Freudian analysis of Max. The back of this book insists that it's filled with romantic suspense, and it is. And it's even worth sitting through the first 200 pages.

Summary: A long-time favorite
Review: I first read "Rebecca" when I was 13, and read it several more times in high school. It's been about ten years since I last read it--and it managed to hook me once again. Rushing home from dinners and drinks with friends to pick it up again. Staying up late reading, even though I know the ending. Rushing to get ready for work so I can finish just a few more pages. While I can't say this a literary masterpiece, I can definitely say this is one of the greatest _stories_ ever--well-told and suspenseful.

Summary: This is a Fabulous book
Review: This is probably the best book I've ever read. I love to go back to it and read parts of it again. The settings are wonderful, the main character was so easy to identify with, and you cannot put it down. When you're done, you wish there were more of it. I take this book with me when I go away, just because I know I'll never get bored if I have it, and because it's kind of about travelling in a way. This book will appeal to everyone, I think, and I would really recommend it.

Summary: Delightfully mysterious and romantic!
Review: I first read "Rebecca" for a school assignment over the summer, but I have read it over several times since then. I could not help but fall in love with Maxim DeWinter, and as the novel progressed I became engrossed in the lives of everyone at Manderly. The book is intriguing and suspenseful to the very last page, and the secrets of Rebecca are shocking! Daphne DuMaurier writes with an ease that makes "Rebecca" pleasant to read. Although not on quite the same level as "Rebecca," the sequel "Mrs. DeWinter" provides a wonderful sense of closing to the story of Max and his young bride. Anyone who enjoyed this novel would also like the romantic drama, "The Thornbirds" by Colleen McCullough.

Summary: Rebecca
Review: This was a truly wonderful book. I loved the movie (Joan Fontaine) so much that I bought the book and the book absolutely amazed me. I could identify with the main character so much and even now that I have read it so many times I still flip back to passages anywhere in it just to read them. I even take this book with me when I travel because it comforts me. How many times does a book do that??!
