It embarrasses me to even admit this now!

Unfortunately, when I read it with my book club, most of the women hated it because they thought the second Mrs. de Winter was too weak and "should have stuck up for herself". I think they missed the point, don't you?Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02160951421693455864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8282761092944595871.post-4665226861708074722009-09-28T13:55:29.628-05:002009-09-28T13:55:29.628-05:00Elizabeth - It was a wonderful read.
