Happy birthday!!! I was prompted to read her books in my late teens. The very first book was called Rebecca. Such a thrilling writer!

I love the subtlety of her stories and the psychological depth of her characters. Beneath the polished, urbane veneer, lies something dark and unfathomably terrifying because it gets under your skin gradually.

Daphne du Maurier enchanted me when I first discovered her at 13.
