Rating: Summary: Je Revien! Review: Je Revien! Could describe my love affair with this book. After thirty years of re-reads, it's still one of my all-time favorites. I get involved in the characters and the storyline, and it's so well-written, the ending is always a surprise.
Rating: Summary: A page-turner for sure Review: Only someone hung-up on TV movies would not appreciate this excellent book. Despite other reviews, I found this interesting from page 1. Give the author a few pages to set mood, and then you're off to meeting some fascinating characters and all along you're wondering: why ...why...why? Very exciting, and very thought-provoking. Now that I've read the book, I'll see Hitchcock's movie.......
Rating: Summary: This is my Favorite book Review: Anyone who is disappointed by "Rebecca" does not appreciate gothic literature. This book is suspenceful and fascinating. Each character has been burned into my mind ever since I first read the book in 6th grade. Hitchcock made this book into a movie so IMAGINE what the story must be like!
Rating: Summary: LOVED IT! Review: In reading a book, I know the author left an impact if I find myself missing the characters after turning the last page. Even though we were never told her name, the narrator is a character that lies inside many woman. She is a person they fear to be, the fear of losing ones personality in loving a man. Du Maurier clearly did a beautiful job in creating this character
Rating: Summary: Very Disappointed Review: I was very dissapointed with this book. The characters were very hard to empathise with,the story was very slow and when there was suspence, you were let down. It seemed that the author didn't even know where she wanted to take the story next, then just settled because she became bored with her own story.
Rating: Summary: Beautifully written Review: I have read this book uptil 5 times now and i have come to a very simple and a plain conclution that daphne du maurier is an incredible writer . Rebecca involved me so much that i had to finish it in one sitting . This book had a wonderful plot and is very beautifully written . This book has inspired me to read all the books written by this author .
Rating: Summary: A Wonderful Book Review: In my high school honors English class, we had reading groups assigned with a college student. OUr book was Rebecca. I began reading it and it went very slow and I thought the book would be a long, painful process. We would meet every week and discuss the book. Guessing what would happen, always turning out to be wrong. The book had so many cliffhangers and unanswered questions that you had to keep reading. Even though I heard the sequel was awful, I would still like to read it and see what becomes of the characters. I am also looking forward to working with my group onn making a project for this wonderful novel.
Rating: Summary: This Book is Fabulous. Review: I read Rebecca about a year ago in 8th grade, and I loved it so much. I started it around 7:00 at night and stayed up until 4:30 in the morning reading it, even though I had school the next day. I simply could not put it down. The ending was so suprising, very Gone With the Wind-ish. The only problem is that it starts a little slow, so you have to stick it out, but it is so good, you forget that in the end. But, just as a warning, the sequel is not NEAR as good!
Rating: Summary: Rebecca review Review: Rebecca is a very interesting and exciting book! It is very descriptive. The characters are complex, and mysterious. It starts out a little bit boring, but the end is fantastic! Now that I've read the book, I can't wait to watch the movie! I give Rebecca four stars!
Rating: Summary: Excellent Story Review: Excellent! If you love suspense stories, you'll read this book again and again. Also, the Hitchcock movie is also very good, but veers somewhat from the book but still very good just the same.
