Rating: Summary: suspenseful Review: i thought this was an excellent book. it was required for one of my classes, and i'm glad it was. it was a bit boring for the first 5 or 7 chapters, but things get sooo much better at the end. definatly a book you would want to read.
Rating: Summary: A really good book, that is, for the last 100 pages. Review: This book is very dry, and dull until you reach chapter 22, then it gets more intersting. But unless you want to read that much, I don't recamand this book.
Rating: Summary: Fantastic, the magic of Daphe Du Marier is very much alive! Review: The story is ingenious and the characters are completely believable. Daphne Du Maurier manages to gain our sympathy for some of the chracters and loathing for others. Raises a lot of questions about marriage and friendship but leaves a lot unanswered!
Rating: Summary: Rebecca is an unforgettable book Review: Every so often, you run across a book that you remember for a long time. I have recently read Rebecca and can honestly say it was one of the greatest books I have ever read. Du Maurier is extremely descriptive, making you feel as if you were there at Manderley yourself. I absolutely loved every bit of this story. It added symbolism that Mrs. De Winter had no name, to add to her non existence. I saw the movie, it cannot even hold a candle to the book. Everyone, if you want an unforgettable experience, read this novel!
Rating: Summary: I was glued to it.... Review: An intruiging book; we know of the second Mrs de Winter only by that name, almost as though her only identity is by being the wife of Maxim. She is endearing and silly and lovable at the same time and yet as we read how she is haunted by shadows of ghosts we are drawn to and repulsed by Manderly at the same time. And the end of the book does not come back to the beginning. As Max has said "Perhaps in the end Rebecca has won", that nothing ever ends when it does.
Rating: Summary: this book will always be on my top 10 favorites! Review: I read Rebecca by Daphne DuMaurier when I was 15 years old and I have never forgotten the story. The movie was good - but the book is always better. Because of this book I read lots of this author, but never felt she wrote anything as good as Rebecca.
Rating: Summary: wonderful romantic and intriguing story of love conquering Review: Rebecca is a story of romance and mystery and suspense all in one book.My Mom gave ne this book when I was 14.It had been her copy when she was my age.Maxim and the 2nd Mrs.DeWinter survive the odds of proper England.And love conquers all even death.I highy recommend this book to anyone who loves a true romance.I believe Rebecca is one of the greatest books written this century.
Rating: Summary: Excellent, but with a strange ending. Review: I loved this book. I began reading it without knowing what to expect and this put me on the edge of my seat. I could not put it down. The ending was a bit disappointing though. It definately makes me to want to read the sequel.
Rating: Summary: A very well ploted book, filled with Mystery and suspense. Review: Du Maurier makes the conflict and the plot mysterious and suspenseful while letting the reader into small amounts of detail giving clues.
Rating: Summary: An enchanting read!!!! Review: I LOVED this book! It was recommended to me by a librarian for a book report. I absolutely fell in love with it. I never guessed the ending. If you like mystery and romance this book is for you. Du Maurier does a wonderful job with the unnamed nararrator. I feel as though I am in Manderley through her and the other characters.
