Clare-Dragonfly I was thinking of I Love Lucy too! 😂 3h
TheAromaofBooks So was Rebecca's intent to GOAD Maxim into murdering her ON PURPOSE??? Also, side note, I'm just not sure what I would do if my husband confessed to killing his first wife, no matter how terrible she was. I'm not confident I would be as “obviously I love you and will stay with you“ as our narrator is! 😂 3h
kwmg40 @TheAromaofBooks I would have trouble with that too! 3h
kwmg40 The doctor offered them cigarettes and sherry! What doctor would do that these days? It was a different time! 3h
Bookwormjillk @TheAromaofBooks yeah, I don‘t think that would have the same effect on me as it had on Jan. 2h
peanutnine @TheAromaofBooks yeah it seemed like Rebecca's way of taking him down with her, not realizing he would get away with it 2h
peanutnine The narrator is so desperate to be loved that she'll overlook some HUGE red flags. She's so worried about what others think of her, she can't imagine leaving him even for a good reason 2h
IndoorDame Totally agree about both of them! If Rebecca wants to off herself, go for it, but suicide by proxy totally makes her an #evilbitch And Jan staying with her husband who‘s perfect except for the whole I‘m a murderer thing is just nuts, like I‘m worried the girl has no basic self preservational instincts! 1h
5feet.of.fury I was so surprised by the doctor‘s report. What the heck? But, it gives everyone a good reason to believe the suicide… 32m

Add me to the list of those who just couldn‘t bear to stick with a chapter a day! WOW! I pretty much didn‘t see any of that coming, and yet it all made perfect sense. Du Maurier was a master. #PemberLittens #hashtagbrigade

dabbe With the greedy, creepy Favell on their tale. 😱 21h
TheAromaofBooks I do not know how you come up with perfect pictures every day 😂 😂 😂 21h
BarkingMadRead @TheAromaofBooks I‘ve seen a lot of movies, read a lot of books, and my Google game is strong 🤣🤣 19h
Clare-Dragonfly Yeah, I couldn‘t stop here 😂 15h
5feet.of.fury Beatrice saying “Rebecca wouldn‘t commit suicide! She‘s not the type!” …this isn‘t helping the way you think it is Beatrice… 44m

Sace Doc Baker!!! 2d
Bookwormjillk 🤣🤣🤣🤣 this pic. Does Danny think Rebecca was only in love with her? So many questions. 2d
julieclair I felt so very sorry for Ben. And yes, I do think Baker is a doctor and she really was pregnant. 2d
Crinoline_Laphroaig I couldn't help myself I binged to the end. 2d
BarkingMadRead @Crinoline_Laphroaig I did that days ago 🤣🤣🤣 2d
willaful I was really struck by the narrator's use of “sensual“ to describe Jack, in a completely negative way. Her fastidiousness seems pathological. A murderer is fine, as long as he's refined. (edited) 2d
Aimeesue Sometimes I just want to slap Jack. Or punch him in the neck. Grrrrr. Poor Ben. He did just what Rebecca wanted, though, didn‘t he? (edited) 2d
Clare-Dragonfly Poor Ben! My Danny in the cottage theory is definitely busted 😂 I appreciate the irony that it‘s Rebecca‘s own threat that is making it difficult for Favell to prove her murder. (edited) 2d
Clare-Dragonfly @julieclair Agreed. Most likely pregnant with Jack‘s child, or at least she believed it was his. 2d
Roary47 @Crinoline_Laphroaig @dabbe @BarkingMadRead Same! I couldn‘t handle it. 🤣 2d
julieclair @Roary47 @dabbe @BarkingMadRead @Crinoline_Laphroaig Oooohhhh…. y‘all have given me the go-ahead to speed on through to the end! 😃 1d

I haven‘t been listening to this a chapter a day, but I downloaded it over the weekend to catch up. Then I just had to finish the last couple chapters last night. Even as a reread, it‘s so suspenseful. I thoroughly enjoyed it and am glad I made the time to listen again.

BarkingMadRead @TheBookHippie I may have squealed when I found it 😍 3d
5feet.of.fury He should have given it at the inquest… 🥃🥃🥃 3d
mcctrish Lord Grantham approves of this message ❤️ 3d
BarkingMadRead @mcctrish right?!?! 😍😍 @5feet.of.fury yes!! 3d
Bookwormjillk Perfect pic! Can‘t wait for tomorrow‘s chapter! 3d
Ruthiella He‘s such a slime ball! He cares only about leveraging this for money-he doesn‘t care about justice. 3d
julieclair @5feet.of.fury 💯 3d
Clare-Dragonfly He certainly doesn‘t seem very believable. I believe him (I bet I know what she wanted to tell him) but he has no proof that Rebecca wrote that note the night she disappeared! 3d
Clare-Dragonfly @5feet.of.fury Right??!? Hmm… he was sitting with Danny… does she know about the note? 3d
Aimeesue @mcctrish Hahahaha! He really does! 3d
Aimeesue Jack is just UGH. Marry your cousin? I‘m still not over the ickiness of that. I mean, I know it was done, but yuck. 3d
willaful @Aimeesue It was pretty common in England. Fanny marries her cousin in Mansfield Park. (edited) 2d
mcctrish @Aimeesue maybe it‘s why the English had such horrible teeth 🤣🤣🤣 2d
Aimeesue @willaful Sure, back on the day, but in the 1930‘s? I don‘t think it was common then. 2d
Aimeesue @mcctrish Definitely can lead to a lot of health issues! 2d
willaful @mcctrish There were definitely some serious inbreeding problems in English history! 2d

julieclair This chapter was so intense!!! (And I enjoyed every moment!) 4d
Bookwormjillk Such a good chapter. This is the trial we deserve after #TheBros 4d
Roary47 Intense! 😱😬 4d
BarkingMadRead @Bookwormjillk 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 4d
Clare-Dragonfly This is very intense! I keep worrying that Maxim is going to freak out and confess! 4d
Ruthiella I don‘t know…Jan‘s fainting fit might have prevented Maxim from being even more of an imperious and arrogant toff and annoy the magistrate even more… 4d
Ruthiella @Bookwormjillk 🤣🤣🤣 4d
5feet.of.fury Ugh, I have a feeling I know who they might try to pin it on… 3d

5feet.of.fury He certainly didn‘t do himself any favors. They served him a plausible excuse for the initial identification & he brushed it off immediately. Everyone just having an awkward lunch waiting for the other shoe to drop 5d

IndoorDame I‘ve been dying for her to snap out of it and act like this with Mrs. D. but did it really take a murder to get her there?! Jan‘s perspective is all out of whack! 5d
ElizaMarie "I'm afraid it does not concern me very much what Mrs. de Winter used to do," I said. "I am Mrs. de Winter now, you know.” —— ?? 5d
Clare-Dragonfly So this is what it takes to get Jan to grow a backbone! I know it‘s not really the murder, it‘s the belief that Maxim didn‘t love Rebecca. Her priorities are all out of whack. I wonder what exactly Frank knows, and why he is protecting Maxim. 5d
Bookwormjillk Life according to the Colonel: Murder ok poetry bad. This is why rich people get away with crimes. 5d
ElizaMarie @Clare-Dragonfly , I feel like Frank knows pretty much everything. I mean, maybe not the threat of the heir, but Max did it. The secret is safe with Frank, who knows Rebecca's type, her evil, manipulative ways. If he could look the other way as long as he did (unless he just figured it out), he has no plans of coming clean. 5d
5feet.of.fury Also Maxim‘s obsession with Jan looking young and naive is so icky 5d
dabbe @Clare-Dragonfly Especially since Rebecca seems to have had a fling with him as well. Maybe he's in love with Rebecca. That would make things even more interesting. 🧐 5d
willaful @5feet.of.fury Yes. He's never going to allow her to truly mature. 5d
TheAromaofBooks @willaful @5feet.of.fury - I definitely think it's a strong reaction to how horrible his life was with Rebecca who was “worldly,“ a serial cheater, into drugs, etc. His response seems to have been to find someone as “innocent“ as possible and his fear is that as she learns more of the world she'll become another Rebecca. I think his hellish time with Rebecca has left him unable to see that genuine maturity between two reasonable people leads to ⬇ 4d
TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) a working partnership that benefits both people. His experience with women seems to be on a “knows nothing“ to “loves to do drugs, sleep around, and rub it in her husband's face“ scale, so while the whole “she needs to stay innocent“ thing does come off kind of creepy, I think he believes he's protecting both himself and the narrator, rather than holding her back. 4d
5feet.of.fury @TheAromaofBooks I can see what you are saying, makes sense. although we are just taking Max‘s word that Rebecca was all these horrible things… I‘m not sure what to believe from him. If he‘s just told this story now that the murder is out. 4d
Roary47 @5feet.of.fury Right?! I like your thoughts @TheAromaofBooks in him choosing her innocence because it is the opposite of Rebecca. I want to think the best of Max, but he has baggage. He should not have jumped into his relationship with Jan, but here we are. 4d
willaful @5feet.of.fury There are some other indications, like her apparent treatment of Ben, and her moves on Frank -- but there too, there's no real evidence is there? 4d
5feet.of.fury @willaful that‘s true, Frank does strike me as reliable, no hidden agenda towards Jan 4d
willaful @5feet.of.fury I trust him, but if someone wanted to write an “other side of the story“ for Rebecca, they'd have some plausible deniability. 4d
TheAromaofBooks @5feet.of.fury - Oooo great point! I guess I am just taking Maxim at face value because the narrator is. But she hasn't actually proven to be a particularly reliable judge of character so far. 4d
