Çok rahatsız edici ve kesinlikle anlayışlı olmasına rağmen, kendimi diğer insanların gerçek acılarını okumaktan çekiniyordum.

Bunu yaklaşık 17 yıl önce okudum ve kısa bir süre önce tekrar karşılaştım ve tekrar okudum. Eski bir arkadaşla yeniden tanışmak gibiydi. İlk kez bir kitabı tekrar okudum ve bunu yapmaya değdi.

Non-fiction that reads like fiction, and is funny

I think it was Kris who recommended this book to me! It was slow at the beginning- and the only thing that really irritated me is that the main character never has a name besides the Second Mrs. Maxim de Winter. I did like the author's writing style- written in 1938- impressive. I could really feel the oppression of her being the companion in the beginning- and this book drives home the theme of not paying attention to the wrong things in your life- focusing on strengths rather than weaknesses... and literally just being the best you can be- who CARES about Rebecca!! I think the plot really got interesting after page 250... but the ending made me wonder if there is a sequel? The character of Mrs. Danvers was so psycho that I was hoping she would get canned after the whole costume incident- which I totally saw coming. An interesting read.
