A gem of a novel that deserves all the stars!��❤❤��

There are some authors whose talent to write is just extraordinary and notable in every paragraph. I read the first chapter of Rebecca and was amazed at the beautiful, vivid prose. I started underlining passages I liked, but quickly realised that I would be underlining most of the book...


"I am glad it cannot happen twice, the fever of first love. For it is a fever, and a burden, too, whatever the poets may say. They are not brave, the days when we are twenty-one. They are full of little cowardices, little fears without foundation, and one is so easily bruised, so swiftly wounded, one falls to the first barbed word."


"Men are simpler than you imagine my sweet child. But what goes on in the twisted, tortuous minds of women would baffle anyone."
