I am so glad I finally read this one (actually listened to it)!
It was moody, atmospheric, riveting, fast paced, emotional. It had me second guessing who was “good” and “evil.” Like Mary I shouldn‘t doubt myself.
The ending was super touching ❤️ As persons we long for a human connection, not just ties to the land.
This is my third du Maurier story and I‘ve loved them all!!! (Rebecca and Frenchman‘s Creek)
pick‘The coachman tried to warn young Mary Yellan away from the ruined, forbidding place on the rainswept Cornish coast..‘
A nice gothic tale, this was dark and atmospheric. I enjoyed it. Good writing and details.

I finished it a day late but I enjoyed this one. I went back and forth between audio and kindle. It‘s very melodramatic with strong Perils of Pauline vibes. Perfect escapist and atmospheric read. Like others have said, it was extra fun to be reading it at the same time of year as in the book. My winter break is coming up and I‘m going to try to talk hubby into watching the 1939 movie with me.

pickI read Rebecca a couple years ago and was happy to read another by Du Maurier. I liked this dark tale, extra enjoyment reading it the same time of year it is set. #HitchToScreen
pickThe first #HitchToScreen book made for a quick (& surprisingly seasonal!) listen that was really well performed (despite the book being read by a man, when I would have expected a lady since the book is from Mary Ellen‘s POV!). After the death of her mother, she travels to the Cornish coast to live with her aunt & uncle at the titular inn. But she quickly realizes that the inn has a dark reputation & soon she strives to unmask its secrets!
I‘m going to attempt to finish this audiobook before December 14th for #hitchtoscreen. I‘m liking it so far (I‘m only on chapter 2). I think I‘m glad that I have not read Rebecca since I‘ve seen a couple of reviews that have said this one isn‘t as good as Rebecca.
Started this #Audiobook today for the #HitchToScreen #buddyread! Been on my TBR for some time, so glad of the excuse to finally read it!
pickOh my goodness. This book was soooooo good! Atmospheric, dark, tense. I couldn‘t wait to find out how it ended, but I didn‘t want it to end! A great way to kick off #HitchToScreen , @JenlovesJT47 !
