Rebecca

Just wanted a quick post to say I took forever to get into this book but then once I started, I stayed up until 1am last night reading the last 100 pages or so.
It's weird but I didn't notice how at the end I was really gunning for the character who had committed murder. Eh.
Also thought it was interesting how Du Maurier seemed to add in dimensions of her own life into the nameless narrator and to the notorious Rebecca title character (lesbianism anyone?).

Apparently Hitchcock did a movie in 1940 and it has quite a big difference in the twist in the story which seems disappointing but without having seen it I can't really comment.

Since I seem to be the last person to discover and read this book I don't think I have much more to add, but I did also buy Jane Eyre yesterday without realising there were any similarities between the two.
