Summary: My All-time Favorite Book!
Review: I have probably read hundreds of books in my life (a definite book-aholic) and Rebecca is my all-time favorite. I re-read it at least twice a year and I never get bored with the story. I believe that the reason why so many people (read: women) love this book so much is they see a piece of themselves in the story. Everyone has, at some time, felt they stood in another's shadow. Everyone has, at some time, felt they were haunted by memories. Rebecca touches a universal chord in people. Masterpeice Theater (PBS) did a wonderful production of Rebecca that can be purchased. I highly recommend viewing the presentation if you can find it on sometime.

Summary: wonderful romance for the non romance reader
Review: I loved this book. I cannot stand romance novels. A teacher told me to pick it up for extra credit and I read it over night. I was struck by this story of love, decit, and murder. It was a page turner.

Summary: This is one of my favorite books!!!!!
Review: The thing I love the most about "Rebecca" is the way the author tells the story. When I read it, I feel as if I'm at Manderley with the second Mrs. de Winter. Also, Daphne du Maurier never mentions the second Mrs. de Winter's name, and I think that is truly unique. This book has so many plot twists, that it makes one wonder how she got the idea for the story. This book is truly a classic.

Summary: A brilliant, timeless novel!
Review: I had to read this book for an English class, then I had to write an 8-page paper on it. The paper was due within a week, plus I had to read all 380 pages! Well, I thought it was going to be a chore, but to my surprise, I loved it! I just couldn't put the book down. The twists and turns totally keeps the reader interested. I'm not even going to sell the book back to the bookstore--I'm going to keep it and read it all the time. I can't say that about too many other books I've had to read for that class. Or any English class for that matter.

Summary: A romantic suspense between two new lovers and the past.
Review: It was great- My only criticizim was that it was very slow in the beginning. I also think that it could have been much more romantic considering the fact that the two were a married couple-

Summary: It is a classic book, but i think it's worth reading.
Review: rebecca is the string of the book and the character i like most is Rebecca. she is featured as a witted and cunning woman and everyone was under her shadow.But, through the book, we can see that people around her admired her so much that even if she died, she took control of the Mandelly. i like her.

Summary: My all-time favorite book!
Review: I have read this book (what seems to be) a million times, and each time I read it, I discover something new about it. Rebecca incorporates all aspects that are necessary in a classic, and I'm sure that it will survive the test of time and still be read 100 years from now. By writing with such beautiful imagery and captivating characters, Du Maurier creates a book that you can't put down -- and when you finish it, you want to start it all over again!
