I have reread it several times and have been interested to see how my attitude towards the narrator and Maxim have changed over the last 30 years or so since I first read it.

I can't believe that I let that cover frighten me away from reading it my whole life. I always thought it was a romance novel, like a Harlequin. Never, never judge a book by its cover is what I learned.<br /><br />Have a safe and Happy New Year, Marie!Natalie~Coffee and a Book Chickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12369504951819517390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359999156621466745.post-21096277088088614332011-12-25T04:45:51.867-05:002011-12-25T04:45:51.867-05:00I didn't read Rebecca until I was well into my...I didn't read Rebecca until I was well into my adult years because I thought it was a romance.

In some ways she's my favorite character in the book, not because I particularly like her, but because she's so creepy and menacing.HKatzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17653570160517335758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359999156621466745.post-43407726615666651512011-12-22T08:02:22.674-05:002011-12-22T08:02:22.674-05:00It has been a long time since I read it..maybe tim...It has been a long time since I read it..maybe time to reread it I think!caitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05824538078958999767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359999156621466745.post-8783880747054767752011-12-21T22:18:01.416-05:002011-12-21T22:18:01.416-05:00Wow, I am totally sold now.

After having a bit of a misstep with The Doll, and hearing everyone say that this was a book I needed to read, I have been dually convinced that this one will make it on to my list for January. Fantastic and enticing review, Marie! You make a very strong case for this book!Zibileehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07443338685890187334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359999156621466745.post-3683464786475889682011-12-21T10:03:20.044-05:002011-12-21T10:03:20.044-05:00I really enjoyed this when I finally read it mysel...I really enjoyed this when I finally read it myself this year.
