Journal Entry 1 by Geegal on Wednesday, June 2, 2004
The main character, the 'second Mrs. Dewinter' is a simple girl, swept up in a romance with a rich widower while she is on vacation as companion to a pushy, well to do woman. She leaves her employer to marry Max DeWinter, not anticipating all this union entails for her.

She is drawn into the shadow of Rebecca, the first Mrs. DeWinter, and fights to measure up, and to retain her sanity in Max and Rebecca's home, Manderley.

Not helping matters at all is Mrs. Danvers, a maid of sorts, who was utterly devoted to Rebecca, and bitterly resents the appearance of this plain, uneducated, unrefined girl trying desperately to fill the void left in the house when Rebecca died suddenly, under mysterious circumstances.

The second Mrs. DeWinter, never referred to by name, finds herself fighting to find her own place at Manderley, and in Max's heart, as well as seeking the approval of Mrs. Danvers and the other household servants, and Rebecca's friends and relatives, as she slowly comes to the realization that not all was as it seemed with Max and Rebecca, and the grounds of Manderley are the burial place of many secrets, perhaps better left undisturbed.

Journal Entry 7 by wingAnonymousFinderwing on Tuesday, May 10, 2005
I caught the book a few days ago when I stayed at a little coffee place in munic. I started to read it but my english is not perfect so I´m sure that I need 2 or 3 weeks to do it. Just the beginning is very mysterious and it seems to be a dark and melancholy stuff.

CAUGHT IN MUNIC BAVARIA GERMANY
