Summary: A great book that traps you in the story.
Review: Rebecca may start slow, but you are quickly taken into the story. It is one of those books you just can't put down.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: absolutely fantastic!!!!
Review: An all-time classic.i'm 14 and it was an easy read for me and it kept me in constant suspense.i saw the movie after i read the book,and the movie is nothing compared to the novel!!!!but the movie does do a pretty fair job.its fun to compare the two.i thought it was fascinating how you the main character was never fully identified. READ IT,NO MATTER WHAT YOUR TYPE OF BOOK IS!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: You won't want to put it down!
Review: For my school summer reading requirements, Rebecca was an option that I chose. Although the first few pages were slow, it picked up quickly as the un-named narrator's life began to change. I read through it in 3 days I loved it so much! I recommend this book to anyone looking for something to bring to the beach with them.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The book is stunner. I give it five stars.
Review: I think that this novel is about a lot more then romance and mystery. It is about the power of sex and how people use it. Rebecca was a women who was born with the knowlage of a mature adult. She spends her life expanding that understanding .DeMaurier gives you just enough glimses of her to tell you that the reasone that she is so powerful is that Rebecca has no soul. No one with a soul would do what she does to that horse at 16. She was also a woman who has an appatite for both men and women. This is not evedent untill you read the novel as an adult. It is also a very powerful exploration of the differences and the simmilarities betwene men and women.This is a very powerful novel and I recomend it to everyone.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A compelling mystery till the end
Review: I read this book when I was in 8th grade and i was able to appreciate how well it was written even then. It holds your attention untill the very end and keeps you guessing. I don't want to give anything away so I will let you read it yoursel. If you can't decide whether or not to read this book, then let me help you. Yes you should read it. Now that that mystery is solved buy the book and try to solve the compelling mystery about Mrs. DeWinter

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: whoa!
Review: My mom brought me this book from a library, and it looked rather dull, so I never got around to reading it. Then I was bored one day, and remembered it. So I got it out and began my journey to Manderly. As many other people have said, it was a bit slow in the beginning, but it does get ever so much better, so for those of you who didn't make it all the way through, you really should try again. The book was extremely well written, and the plot was terrific. I especially loved the way the characters (mainly the un-named Mrs. De Winter) felt and thought in some of the same ways that I do. I haven't seen the mivie yet, but plan to, and I can't wait to get my hands on the sequal. This was a really excellent book, and I recommend it to everyone!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: WOW! A must read!
Review: I do admit, I wasn't impressed with this book from the beginning. It was one of my mother's favorites, and she bought it for me one day and urged me to read it. The start of the story was rather slow and being a teenager, I need a lot to keep my interest. After the first hundred pages or so, I could not put this down! In the end, I had stayed up until five in the morning and could not fall asleep afterwards because I was thinking of this book so much. And then I got ready for school, and thought about it all day. If you are rather skeptical about this book, please just try it!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: A VERY SLOW READ!!!
Review: I don't understand why so many people gave this book five stars. One of the most important things to me in a book is a catchy beginning. This is something this book dfinitely did NOT have. Absolutely nothing happens for the first 230 pages. Then the plot gets interesting and we learn Maxim's deep, dark secret. What I don't understand is why the second Mrs. DeWinter stays with Maxim after finding out what he did. The plot is totally unreallistic, because Maxim asked her to marry him after knowing her for about two weeks. Also, no woman in her right mind would stay with a man who committed murder. And why don't we ever find out the second Mrs. DeWinters's first name? Overall, I really don't recomend this book. I had wanted to read Rebecca for a long time because everyone said it was so good. I must say I was extremely disappointed with the novel. This is a good book to cure insomnia. I hope I have better luck with the movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The perfect book for a reader who likes romance and suspense
Review: Rebecca keeps you in suspense, while you feel connected to the characters. Daphne Du Maurier writes it in the main character's view, but also explores many other character's aspects. When I was reading it, I told myself I would read one chapter, but then I would go on to read three or four chapters. I just could not put it down. It is definitely a classic.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Great Classic and Mystery!!!!!
Review: I'm 14 years old and I read this book for a school book report. I usually don't like classics, but this one was really good since it was also a mystery novel and I love mysteries. This one was also a great thriller. The beginning was a little boring, but don't get discouraged 'cause it's worth the wait. I know other people who've read it and liked it so I really think you should read this awesome book.
