Somehow I missed reading this book in college or seeing the movie/show, so I am late to jump on this bandwagon but I loved this book!

Although it was published in 1938, it feels like it could have been written today. Rebecca tells the story of a shy, young woman who marries a rich widower. When she moves into his estate, the presence of his late wife Rebecca is everywhere and overwhelming. It feels like a mysterious, slightly spooky Downton Abbey. I loved the vibes, prose, and found it very thought-provoking! While reading it, I kept telling myself "be grateful you are reading this for the first time!"
