's review

it was amazing
bookshelves: modern-classics

“She has done for me at last, Rachel my torment�


This line should be as well known as

“Last night I dreamt I went to Manderley again.�




& this novel is every bit as good as Rebecca. As a reader you twist and turn unable to decide. (view spoiler)

Today I'm thinking (view spoiler) Tomorrow I may think differently, but I know I will still find this book an amazing work of fiction - the best I have (re)read in quite some time.

Can't wait for the release of the 2017 movie.

Dolors I should return to Du Maurier, this one I own and I still haven't read...so thanks for reminding me of it, Carol!


Emmy B. The movie's coming out soon! I need to read it before I watch it.

Thanks both of you for liking the review. It's not complete as Photobucket looks to have been hacked, so I couldn't upload my pictures.

I can't wait for the movie. Fun fact - the actor who played Dickon in one of my all time favorite movies, the Secret Garden has a secondary role in this.


Bobbie I'm currently re-reading this one.


Bionic Jean There's a movie??? I think this is even better than Rebecca ... just a smidgen :)

There is certainly more to think about. I'm still wavering on my final conclusions!




Bionic Jean Thanks! I'll look out for it. The only one I've ever seen is the oldie with Olivia de Havilland!


Carol She's So Novel꧁꧂ I do remember seeing that. Looking on IMdB there is a version with Geraldine Chaplin. She would have the right look.

Sigh. I need to learn how to centre images on GR.


Marg Rettler I finally read My Cousin Rachel. What a great, descriptive book. I think left me wanting to know more! Did she, didn't she...loved it!
